WHAT'S GOOD: The Hillman City Block Party

WHAT’S GOOD! the Hillman City Block Party, returns to Hillman City Saturday, August 8, 2026, for a free, all-ages festival celebrating the music, food, businesses, families, artists, and neighbors that keep this South Seattle corridor moving.
Held in the Hillman City Business District along Rainier Avenue South, WHAT’S GOOD is a full-day neighborhood gathering built around the simple idea that a block party should feel like the neighborhood itself: familiar, generous, creative, intergenerational, and alive.
This year’s lineup brings together artists and bands who reflect the range of Seattle’s independent music community, including Yonny, Jovino Santos Neto, Afrocop, Geneva, Shelby Natasha, Dude York, Brihana Jua, Ohr, Raising Slane, and more, alongside DJ sets from local selectors all day and through the night. WHAT’S GOOD also features hours of free children’s programming and activities in the morning in support of the Southend’s amazing families.
Check out our kids activities from 10a-2p, then music, crafts, food, and more for the rest of the day!
