(February 24, 2026—SEATTLE) Daydream State today announced the lineup for the 28th annual Capitol Hill Block Party (CHBP) music and arts festival, returning August 7–9 to the heart of Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood.

“Capitol Hill Block Party has always been about reflecting the energy of this neighborhood — creative, independent and constantly evolving,” said Evan Johnson, Senior Vice President of Daydream State. “This year’s lineup leans into the indie and electronic sounds that define the moment, while staying true to our roots by spotlighting an incredible number of Seattle artists. We’re proud to continue growing this festival in a way that supports the community, our venue partners and the broader Pacific Northwest music ecosystem.”
CHBP will host more than 100+ performances across multiple indoor and outdoor stages, including iconic independent venues Neumos and Barboza, along with additional neighborhood spaces throughout Capitol Hill. With more than half of the 2026 lineup hailing from Seattle, the festival continues its longstanding mission to amplify local artists while bringing globally recognized talent to the Pacific Northwest. Building on its deep ties to the neighborhood, Daydream State will also curate collaborative promotions and sponsored programming throughout the summer to drive visibility and foot traffic to the small businesses that make Capitol Hill a cultural destination year-round.
