Best of Portland Block Party
Wednesday | July 23rd, 2025 | 5-8pm
So much of what truly makes Portland great is the stuff that often falls through the cracks—the bicycle dance troupes, the underground food labs hidden in luxury hotels, the everyday people doing something extraordinary even if only appreciated by a handful of their closest friends.
In July of 2025, we’re bringing back our Best of Portland Block party - hosted in the blocks outside our offices in Slabtown. Like WW’s Best of Portland issue, our accompanying block party is a salute to all the things that make Portland, Portland.
We’re inviting everyone featured our Best of Portland issue, the small businesses voted “The Best” in our readers’ poll, our neighbors and many of the weird and whacky things that make our city great.
Come party with 1000+ of our closest friends.
Posters from prior Block Parties.
