IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - Iowa City is expecting tens of thousands of people to attend its second Downtown Block Party this weekend.
Last year’s inaugural Downtown Block Party drew an estimated 30,000 people to the downtown area.
The event, which runs from 5-11 p.m. Saturday, includes live music, sand volleyball, a fashion show, ping pong, mini golf, tug-of-war tournament and outdoor movie.
The event is for all ages and admission is free, but $11 wristbands and official cups are required for those 21 and over who want to take beer or wine from restaurants into the streets.
