Downtown Block Party
Downtown Block Party is a free summer festival that showcases live music and local community performances, the Encompass NW Kid Zone (open noon to 5 p.m.), a vendor fair with 75 participants, a locally sourced beer and wine garden for those at least 21 years of age, and a variety of delicious food. The festival is coordinated by the North Bend Downtown Foundation (NBDF), a nonprofit organization dedicated to local businesses, downtown revitalization and more. Sales from the festival’s Beer and Wine Garden support NBDF’s work in supporting Downtown North Bend businesses.
