Block Party Capitol Hill Block Party: Not Sold Out… Yet
posted by on July 26 at 17:00 PM
People have been e-mailing us about Block Party tickets, hearing that they’re sold out. Well they’re not. Dave Meinert just sent this message giving everyone the full scoop:
Tickets are selling fast for the Block Party - more tickets have sold in advance for this year than any year in Block Party history - however, it’s not sold out….yet!
Tickets for both Friday and Saturday are still available online at Ticketswest and Ticketswest outlets, and at the Neumo’s box office. Advance tickets for Friday will stop being sold tonight, but there will be tickets available at the festival. Tickets for Saturday will stay on sale until Saturday morning, and then will also be available at the festival. OK? IT”S NOT SOLD OUT. No matter what anyone tells you, there will be tickets at the festival for sale for both days, promise.
We suggest people arrive early to get your tickets at the festival to avoid lines. There are two places to get tickets at the festival - the main entrance is at Broadway and Pike - this is where you go if you ordered your tickets online and are getting them at ‘will call’, and you can also enter here if you have tickets, and you can also buy tickets here. However, there is also a gate at 12th Ave and Pike where you can purchase tickets and get in if you already have a ticket. The gate at 12th and Pike usually has shorter lines so is the quicker way to get in if you care about those kind of things.
A map of the Block Party showing the entrances is available here - http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/special/blockparty?page=map
There will be plenty of beer flowing in the beer gardens, but if you want the hard stuff, be sure to stop by the bars - Cha Cha, Moe Bar, Sugar, Havana, the Comet, and Wild Rose are all inside the festival and all great places to get out of the sun and get your drink on. You can see the mainstage from inside of Sugar and the Comet. Rock on!
when are you guys going to start calling it the esurance block party or whatever it's called?
god, the seattle weekly is soooo tired.
like, oh my god megan...are you like, totally not sold out yet either?
thank you for making my neighborhood a fucking fortress. i exclusionary "block parties."
yeah, and you're selling them at urban outfitters too... Why do you guys make fun of them in your paper, and the have them as a sponsor of your event?!
And while I'm at it, why do you have to have all the bands I want to see play at the same time, or within half an hour of each other!? what the hell.
