H Street Festival 2023


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sat, 09/16/2023
H Street Festival is one of the most anticipated and highly attended single day festivals in Washington D.C. The festival is 11 blocks long and has 14 staging areas that are diversely themed and programmed to target the different segments of audiences. The staging areas feature music of different genres, dance, youth-based performances, interactive children’s program, fashion, heritage arts, poetry and many more. We have activity stations that focus on participatory artwork, informational stations that promote arts education, and exhibitor stations that showcase D.C. based artists. The depth and range of arts presentations are incomparable to any other festivals.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

The festival started as a 500 participant bloc party more than 12 years ago, it has now grown into a 150,000 participant event.  The change is immense and the impact is lasting. By using the arts as a principle motivator of the festival, it has proven the arts can be a valuable agent in impacting economic growth.  The festival also has a direct impact on reducing commercial building vacancy rate on H Street Corridor from 75% to under 5%.  H Street Festival has successfully utilized arts as an engine for the growth for the historic neighborhood.
