Community Stage: Jerry's Brings the Full Family Lineup to The Block Party 2026

Community leader since 1961, and a Springfield institution since 2003, Jerry's Home Improvement Center has had a big hand in building our town. Now in their second year at The Block Party, Jerry's is sponsoring the Community Stage with fun, family friendly entertainment all night long, from 4 to 10 PM.

Community Stage Lineup: Saturday, September 12

5:00 PM & 6:20 PM — Tsunami Skippers A nonprofit jump rope team based in Seaside, and the only competitive jump rope team in Oregon. They've performed at Harlem Globetrotters games, Six Flags, and Portland Trail Blazers games, and they host the Oregon Coast Classic tournament annually in Seaside.

5:30 PM — One More Time Marching Band A Eugene-area institution since 1986, OMT got its start playing in the Eugene Celebration parade. An adult marching band, open to musicians of all ages, abilities, and levels of silliness.

6:40 PM — XCape Dance Academy Led by founder and Artistic Director Vanessa Fuller, the youth team trains in styles like hip hop, jazz, contemporary, and tap, with a focus on technical training, stage presence, and performance opportunities.

7:00 PM — Samba Ja Eugene's own samba-reggae bateria: a percussion ensemble bringing the wild, funky, danceable street music of Salvador, Bahia straight to Main Street. A local fixture for 25 years, they're the heartbeat of the party wherever they go.

8:00 PM — DJ food stamp An Eugene-based vinyl DJ known for crate-digging blends and mixes spanning classic hip hop, soul, and funk. He brings deep-cut selections and old-school turntable skills to the block.

5:30 & 7:30 PM — Phi Long Lion Dancers The area's own lion dance troupe, a regular performer at the Oregon Asian Celebration and the AANHPI Heritage Celebration in Springfield.

Jerry's Home Improvement Center supports our community through the joy of music, and we couldn't be more grateful to have them back for a second year on Main Street.

Catch the Community Stage September 12th, starting at 4.
