JUST ANNOUNCED: THE CHAINSMOKERS — GLOW BLOCK PARTY | DC RAVERS 🔥

🔥 JUST ANNOUNCED: THE CHAINSMOKERS — GLOW BLOCK PARTY | DC RAVERS 🔥 The Chainsmokers are coming back to DC. GLOW announced today that The Chainsmokers will headline the third and final GLOW Block Party of 2026 on Saturday, October 17 — their first DC show since 2019. That seven-year absence is a big reason to expect this one to draw a crowd. And the rest of the lineup is strong: MK is playing a special sunset set, with Lavern, Eyezic and Emmy Adelle, plus a second Homegrown Stage showcasing DC artists. We’re making this an official DC Ravers — EDM for Everyone meetup, with a pre-meetup before the show so we can meet, connect and head into the Block Party together. 🎶 THE EVENT 📅 Saturday, October 17, 2026 ⏰ 3:00 PM–9:30 PM 📍 600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC 🔞 18+ MAIN STAGE 🔥 The Chainsmokers 🌅 MK — Special Sunset Set 🎧 Lavern 🎧 Eyezic 🎧 Emmy Adelle HOMEGROWN STAGE BRI. B2B CLYXDA • DOUG • RAASI • SYRE • WHYNOT This is one of the more distinctive EDM settings in DC: Pennsylvania Avenue transformed into a day-to-night outdoor dance party, with the Capitol in the background, two stages, immersive art, local food vendors and bars. It’s also the last GLOW Block Party of the year. 🎟️ TICKETS Presale: Thursday, September 17 at 10:00 AM ET General on-sale: Friday, September 18 at 10:00 AM ET Because the event was announced today, the Chainsmokers listing has not yet appeared on GLOW’s public events page. Sign up for the GLOW presale now so you’ll receive access when tickets open Thursday. GLOW / Club Glow official website and presale signup⁠ Club Glow official events page⁠ I’ll update this Meetup listing with the direct ticket link as soon as GLOW publishes it. 🍻 DC RAVERS PRE-MEETUP Yes — we’ll meet before the Block Party. 📍 Location: Details to follow ⏰ Time: Details to follow I’ll choose somewhere convenient to Pennsylvania Avenue where we can get together before heading to the event. Coming solo? Come meet us. One of the main reasons DC Ravers exists is to make it easier to find people to go to shows with and to build an EDM community that extends beyond seeing one another in a crowd. New to EDM? Welcome. Been raving for years? Welcome. Don’t know anyone in the group yet? Welcome. EDM for Everyone means everyone. 🚇 GETTING THERE The Block Party is at 600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, with easy Metro access from Archives–Navy Memorial–Penn Quarter (Green/Yellow) and Gallery Place–Chinatown (Red/Green/Yellow). With Pennsylvania Avenue being used for the event, Metro is strongly recommended rather than driving. We’ll add the final entrance location, security/bag rules, set times, pre-meetup location and any street-closure information once GLOW releases the event-specific logistics. 🫶 WHY WE’RE DOING THIS AS A MEETUP The Chainsmokers haven’t played DC since 2019. MK is giving us a sunset set. We get two stages in the middle of downtown Washington. And instead of everyone disappearing into a massive crowd independently, we have an opportunity to experience it as a community. That is what DC Ravers — EDM for Everyone is about. RSVP here even if you haven’t bought your ticket yet. That way you’ll receive our pre-meetup and day-of updates as we get closer. Bring friends. Come solo. Meet somebody new. Great music brings good people together. DC Ravers — EDM for Everyone 🎶 Music | People | Places | A More Connected DC
