The Chocolate City in collaboration with H Street Main Street: Flags Up Edition

This Art All Night, step into nostalgia and culture as The Chocolate City Experience takes over the Old AutoZone on H Street for a one-of a kind celebration, Flags Up Edition. We’re bringing the block alive with the roots of reggae, afrobeat, and Caribbean soul, paying homage to the legends, Fela Kuti, Bob Marley, Shabba Ranks, Sister Nancy, and more.

Expect classic cars gleaming under nostalgic lights, rotating DJs spinning timeless riddims, art projections of everyday Caribbean and African life, and the sweet smell of food vendors serving island and soul flavors.
