Technicolor disco-house — relentless fun, zero pretension, hooks big enough to convert whoever wandered past the stage.
Capitol Hill Block Party 2026 Lineup
Three days on a fenced-off stretch of Pike and Broadway — MUNA, Wet Leg and Disco Lines up top, and the neighbourhood's own clubs running sets until close.
About Capitol Hill Block Party 2026
Capitol Hill Block Party closes off a few blocks around Pike and Broadway in Seattle for three days each August and runs four stages inside them — the outdoor Main and Daydream stages, plus full bills inside Neumos and Barboza, the neighbourhood clubs the festival grew up around. 2026 is the first year it is 21+; the organisers say the change was made to rework the site layout, and every ticketholder needs a driver's licence or passport at the gate.
MUNA close Friday, Disco Lines close Saturday and Wet Leg close Sunday, with Magdalena Bay, a Tinashe DJ set and Parcels in the slots directly beneath them. Daydream is the discovery stage — Ninajirachi, Mallrat, Rochelle Jordan and Frost Children all play it — while Neumos and Barboza carry the deep undercard in half-hour and 45-minute slots, and keep going with after-hours DJ sets once the last billed act finishes. Set times for all 74 acts are published.
Expect alternative, pop, rock and hyperpop across 74 acts.

Search it, filter by day, stage or genre — save anything straight to your schedule.
Maximalist internet-native synth-pop, with a live show built to match the density of the records — lore, visuals, and hooks in equal supply.
Life-affirming queer synth-pop — 'Silk Chiffon' joy with serious writing chops, and the best live banter in pop included.
Daft Punk-approved Aussie disco — immaculate grooves, live-band tightness, five-part harmonies over four-on-the-floor, played tight enough to pass a studio audit.
The R&B shapeshifter who went fully independent and got better for it — mixtape-era instincts, dance-floor timing, and a catalogue deep enough to cherry-pick from all night.
Deadpan, hook-loaded post-punk — the Isle of Wight duo grown into a full-blast rock band, 'Chaise Longue' just the opening joke.
Club-circuit electronic project.
Turned the maximalist IT GIRL into a whole persona — brash, sample-hungry club-pop delivered with the confidence of someone who never doubted it would land.
Globe-trotting soul-pop — a rich, agile voice over self-produced grooves, folding the percussion and texture of everywhere she's lived into modern R&B.
Techno DJ turned dream-pop bandleader — DJ-Kicks grace rebuilt at song scale, club-honed instincts smoothed into gauzy, sophisticated pop.
Avery Cochrane
Internet-native club pop with the gloss cranked past the point of taste — Eurodance, trance and rap ad-libs fed through a blown-out speaker.
Sibling duo making fuzzy, playful alt-pop with internet-era intimacy — lo-fi textures and hooks that sound DM'd directly to you.
Cal State Football Stadium
The drag superstar behind the decks — camp, pop edits, and pure joy, a set built for singing along in sunglasses.
DJ_Dave
Builds the set from scratch on stage, writing code as the track plays and projecting it for the room — algorave practice turned into an actual dance set.
Sibling NYC hyperpop chaos agents — glitchy, funny, and relentless, a live set that plays like a timeline scrolled at maximum speed.
Absurdist synth-pop performance art — bubbly, deranged, delightful, a show engineered to make a crowd grin and go 'what?' simultaneously.
Girl Parallel
Genre-hopping duo bringing club heat.
Instant Crush
Jigitz
Lucy Bedroque
Makenna DeCaro
Grace Shaw writes featherweight pop that hits harder than its volume suggests — half-whispered hooks, hip-hop-schooled rhythm, and an eye for the small devastating detail.
MGNA CRRRTA
Dual-frontwoman indie rock that lovingly resurrects '90s alternative — big fuzzy hooks, deadpan cool, and twin guitar harmonies built for radio that no longer exists.
UK garage revival heat — skippy drums and low-end pressure, two-step engineered for the new generation of dancefloors.
Nickcheo
Gauzy London dream-pop — midnight-drive music, synths blurred to streetlight smears, soft-focus songs that glow in the dark.
Sample-soul house on the rise — warm, chopped-vocal grooves with a headphone producer's detail, soulful edits with an easy touch.
Glittering, game-engine electronic — Australia's most inventive young club producer, chiptune sparkle at rave pressure, drops that sparkle as hard as they hit.
Otha
Swedish electro-pop with a cold, glossy surface and real ache underneath — the Scandinavian tradition of hiding heartbreak inside a dancefloor banger.
Oxis
Rainbow Jackson
UK-garage-inflected R&B — Kaytranada's favorite-vocalist energy, silk delivery over broken beats, two-step rhythms under velvet vocals.
Sloane Motion
Whatmore
Comedian and rapper in equal measure — the jokes are real and so, annoyingly, are the songs, beats from rap's A-list included.
Zailee Haze
Bazaar
Chorus-drenched guitars and vocals mixed into the haze — dream pop that sounds like it was recorded through a window.
Camille Cano
Casi
Clouds of the West
Clover
Dark Chisme
Drew Martin
dsrt flwr
Emi Pop
Fatal Femmes
Fleetwood Snack
Give Me The Money
Glass Egg
Henry Mansfield
J.Henry
A high, unguarded voice over guitar figures that keep folding back on themselves — small-town songwriting that never reaches for a bigger gesture than it needs.
Kenshi Killzzz
Lovely Colours
Middle Names
Pink Steam
Plugged In!
Poached
Rodney Tristan
Rose Peak
RUB
Samara Lennoxx
Glam-schooled songwriting with a theatrical streak — velvet melodies, a dandy's delivery, and hooks that would have charted in 1972.

Up-and-comers to catch early
- Mallrat — Featherweight Australian pop that hits much harder than its volume suggests.
- Gelli Haha — Deliberately silly, deliberately physical art-pop — one of the more unpredictable live propositions here.
- Frost Children — Playing twice on Friday: a Daydream set, then the Neumos afters as a DJ set.
- babymorocco — Club pop with the gloss cranked well past taste, in the mid-afternoon Sunday sun.
- Aliyah's Interlude — An early Friday main-stage slot for the IT GIRL persona.
- Night Tapes — London dream-pop, well suited to a golden-hour second-stage slot.
- Scott Yoder — Glam-schooled Seattle songwriting, opening the last day at Barboza.
Other acts worth planning around
- MUNA — Friday's closer, and the festival's biggest singalong by some distance.
- Wet Leg — Sunday's closer — grown from a deadpan two-piece into a full-blast rock band.
- Disco Lines — Closes Saturday, and the only main-stage set built purely for dancing.
- Magdalena Bay — Friday's sub-headliner, with a live show as dense as the records.
- Tinashe (DJ Set) — Not a live show — a Saturday-night DJ set drawing on a very deep catalogue.
- Parcels — Five-part harmonies over four-on-the-floor, in the slot immediately before Wet Leg on Sunday.
- Zack Fox — Comedian and rapper, in the Sunday teatime slot where that combination works best.
- DJ Trixie Mattel — An hour-long Friday main-stage DJ set, which is exactly the kind of booking this festival makes.
