Summer Block Party

Summer Block Party brings live music, local artists, patio energy, participating businesses, and downtown summer programming to Rice Howard Way from June 20 to September 19, 2026.

This free summer street activation series invites Edmontonians to meet friends downtown, catch live performances, support nearby businesses, and make Rice Howard Way part of their summer plans. Each Summer Block Party brings a new reason to stop, stay, and see what’s happening on Rice Howard Way, with programming details updated throughout the season as artists, partners, and special features are confirmed.

Come early. Stay later. Meet us On The Way.

Free to attend. Food, beverages, and purchases from local businesses are at visitors’ own cost.
