THIS EVENT IS 21+ 

Black Coffee arrives in Washington, DC for a one-day pop-up event, shutting down K St between 7th & 9th and transforming the street into an open-air dance floor built around sound and movement. Known for his deeply layered, soulful approach to house music, Black Coffee delivers immersive sets that move between rhythm, emotion, and atmosphere in a way that is distinctly his own.

Led by a globally renowned artist who has shaped dance floors around the world, this pop-up is designed for connection — a space to create memories and discover new sounds together. After joining the nü community in 2021 and 2022, Black Coffee returns for a third time, continuing a relationship rooted in shared energy and culture.

"I feel like I’m in DC”

The experience extends beyond the music, with immersive art installations, a 360-degree bar, vendors, merchandise, and more throughout the closed street.

Special thanks to DowntownDC BID,  Pipkin Creative, and Mixt Consulting for their support in bringing this event to life.
