Duke Street Block Party 2022
Abbotsford's beloved street party returns for its long-awaited second edition, dishing up a huge day of live tunes, cold beers, food and fun.
Overview
The brainchild of Untitled Group (the crew behind Beyond the Valley, Pitch Music & Arts, Ability Fest), touring agency Crown Ruler, Moon Dog Craft Brewery and PBS 106.7FM, the inaugural Duke Street Block Party proved a raving hit with music-lovers back in 2019.
Of course, thanks to COVID, we never got to see Round 2. Until now. Fast forward to Saturday, March 19, and the Block Party will finally make its comeback, descending on a normally quiet pocket of Abbotsford for its huge second instalment. The festivities will take over Bond Street as well as their usual home of Duke Street, promising three stages and a diverse lineup of acts.
On the bill, catch high-energy sets from Floating Points, Detroit's DJ Holographic, Jamaican dancehall icon Sister Nancy and Melbourne's own Cassettes For Kids. US DJs Eris Drew and Octo Octa will take to the stage, along with homegrown legends including C.FRIM, Milo Eastwood, Crescendoll, Sophie McAlister, PET$ and Mirasia.
The Moon Dog Warehouse is set to be reimagined as a giant DJ-fuelled dance floor, while the neighbouring carpark will showcase more dance-worthy tunes selected by party crew Dutty. There'll be plenty of other goodness to explore throughout the precinct, too, including culinary treats from the likes of Nico's Sandwich Deli and freshly tapped Moon Dog brews.
