Remember ‘Feed the Block’? Yeah, I’d say most of us do – it was pretty epic, and very Vegas. Well, good news! According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the free pop-up EDM festival is finally making its comeback to Fremont East in early October. It’s been a while since the last one back in April, when a massive crowd of around 20,000 people showed up to see Marshmello.
What’s Feed the Block?
In the past, top artists like Diplo, Major Lazer, and Gryffin (who actually kicked off the whole thing in April 2025) have all thrown down amazing sets at the corner of 6th and Fremont.
If you’ve never been, the setup is really cool. The DJ booth is actually the ForestHouse Art car, and you get a great view of Fremont East (with the iconic canopy glowing in the background). The experience is an Instagrammer’s dream, but also just a really good party.
Welcome back!
Wondering why they took a break over the summer? Ryan Doherty (who’s behind the festival and founder of Corner Bar Management) told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that summer shows are a no-go in Vegas. Why? For obvious reasons…because temps regularly blast past 100 degrees from June through August. Pulling off a safe outdoor party requires way too many expensive health and safety measures. So for now, they’re sticking to the cooler months. Which fortunately…are coming soon!
However, Vegas isn’t completely dead until then. While we wait for the next Feed the Block edition, you can check out one of the free Downtown Summer Rocks concerts – full lineup here.
