It’s almost time to turn up the volume on one of DC’s most beloved neighborhood festivals—Adams Morgan PorchFest is back on Saturday, May 3, 2025, and this year’s lineup is bigger than ever.
The free, family-friendly event transforms stoops, patios, and public spaces into stages for live music across genres—from bluegrass and indie rock to soul, jazz, hip-hop, and more.
🎤 This year’s headliner? Gangstagrass. The Emmy-nominated band blends bluegrass instrumentation with hip-hop flow for a sound (and show) like no other. Catch their set on the Aetna Main Stage at 2424 18th Street NW.
🎶 The music kicks off all afternoon across three main stages and dozens of neighborhood porches. Stroll the 18th Street corridor, hear incredible performances, and soak in the sounds of spring.
🍽️ While you’re at it, take advantage of exclusive PorchFest discounts at participating businesses and restaurants. You can check out specials, wristband pick-up spots, and the full lineup of performers at admodc.org.
Whether you’re a longtime local or just looking for something new to do in DC, PorchFest is your invitation to celebrate community, creativity, and culture—Adams Morgan style.
