United for Youth Block Party

Get ready, Asheville! The United for Youth Block Party is back and bigger than ever — and you’re invited. This high-energy, family-friendly event is all about celebrating our community’s resilience, creativity, and connection.

Join us Friday, August 22 from 5–8 PM at Pack Square Park for an unforgettable afternoon featuring live performances by local youth, a DJ spinning the hits, mouthwatering food trucks, 50+ community info booths, and hands-on STEAM and Resiliency zones. There’s something for everyone — from fun kids’ activities to powerful moments of inspiration.

Whether you're a parent, teen, or community supporter, this event is all about uniting to celebrate what makes Asheville strong: our people, our partnerships, and our unstoppable spirit. And the best part? It’s completely FREE.

Bring your friends, your family, and your love for this city — we’ll see you at the block party!
