[divider]CAPITOL HILL BLOCK PARTY – Seattle, WA[/divider]
A Seattle-staple, this year taking place July 24 – 26, the Capitol Hill Block Party is a must-consider for every Northwest festival fan when deciding summer plans. Continually intriguing and well-rounded lineups make the three-day celebration, a celebration of everything that makes Seattle one of the Northwest’s hubs for art and music, one of the top multi-day festivals around. Tickets for the event are also very reasonably priced, with the total coming in at around $150 for a 3-day wristband. We’ll take that any day, especially with a lineup featuring RATATAT, Jamie xx, Giraffage, Daktyl, and many more artists from a variety of genres.

Another Oregon-based festival that will be drawing attendees from throughout the Northwest, What The Festival?! is quickly becoming one of our area’s premier summer experiences. The four-day festival takes place June 19 – 22 at the 250-acre Wolf Run Ranch in Oregon, about 90 miles east of Portland. After drawing The Glitch Mob, RL Grime, Claude von Stroke, Cashmere Cat, and a host of other quality dance music artists, the 2015 had some big shoes to fill. After even a quick skimming of the WTF?! 2015 lineup, one can see that those shoes have been filled with ease. Big Gigantic, ODESZA, GRiZ, Keys N Krates, EPROM, and more make up a lineup that is undoubtedly one of the Northwest’s best of 2015, tickets to which can be purchased here.
