Block Party at MAAT on October 4, 5 and 6

The concept of a “block party”, began to gain popularity in the 1970s in New York, with the African-American community gathering on the streets of the various neighborhoods and spreading music throughout the neighborhood. Today, events take place in neighborhoods where streets are closed to traffic, allowing people to gather and celebrate community spirit. Block parties have grown into a global phenomenon, attracting hundreds of thousands of locals and tourists.
After London, Berlin and New York, it is now Lisbon's turn to offer locals and tourists the opportunity to experience the true essence of the city. A grand celebration of the city's unity and diversity, with the main ingredients being art, music, gastronomy and market.
Powered by The Spot Market – a renowned name in the organisation of fashion and lifestyle markets and in the promotion of independent brands with a strong Iberian presence – the Market celebrates the unique and the original.
