We have and continue work directly with his family, the estate and the Samuel Andre Burns Legacy Foundation to support Sam's visions and love, and to spread "Disco's Revenge" in his name.

We weathered the COVID storm and YOUR SAFETY IS PARAMOUNT - We strongly encourage you to get vaccinated. #GETYOURSHOT at #CapHouseFest - DC Department of Health will be there giving FREE vaccines.

The safest course for our attendees, artists, dancers, guest, and community is that WE REQUIRE FACE COVERINGS and practice #SOCIALDISDANCING at #CapHouseFest - The Official Summer Opener!

Our mission is to move your body with World House Music, raise funds and donations for Inner City Music Programs.

REVIEWS...."EXCELLENT EVENT. The positive energy was electric, infectious and contagious. What happened in the park on Monday definitely catapults DC into the tier of premier Labor Day House Music events in the country. The dance space was wide, open and shady. The rain that fell heightened the spiritual aura of what House is about... We were all the blessed Monday in Malcolm X Park. I know I was."
