Paloozanoire’s 6th Anniversary of the Juneteenth Block Party Powered by Duke Energy
The city’s biggest and most anticipated celebration returns for its 6th anniversary on Saturday, June 21, 2025, from 4:00 PM to 11:00 PM at The Banks, and this year’s Juneteenth Block Party promises to be the largest and boldest yet.
This year’s celebration will feature a stacked lineup of top DJs, a reimagined Family Zone experience, and the highly anticipated return of the Homecoming Experience—a tribute to fraternities, sororities, and alumni organizations, with special recognition of the Divine 9. The event will once again serve as a vibrant, inclusive tribute to culture, legacy, and community.
Last year’s Block Party saw over 27,000 guests, and excitement is already building for this year’s celebration. The Family Zone will feature appearances from Cincinnati Reds mascots, live performers, and interactive activities, making it fun for all ages. Attendees can support minority-owned food trucks or enjoy a number of bars and restaurants along The Banks.
