About
Our biggest block party yet. Get ready for two days of musical bliss at our new Boom Island location nestled on the mighty Mississippi.
The Basilica Block Party began in 1995 as a fundraiser to help pay for the structural restoration of The Basilica of Saint Mary. Today, proceeds from the event benefit The Basilica Landmark, which preserves, restores and advances the historic Basilica of Saint Mary for all generations. In addition, a portion of all proceeds from The Basilica Block Party go to The Basilica's St. Vincent de Paul outreach program, which provides services to those in need.
