Music and community have always been central to the series. The annual block parties started as an intimate daylong gathering in Brooklyn, NY for season one, expanded to Inglewood, CA for season two, and culminated with over 2,500 fans attending Insecure Fest at Banc of California Stadium last season. This year’s VIRTUAL BLOCK PARTY moves the event online, with the potential to engage even more passionate “Insecure” fans.
Hope to see you all there!
