The Block Party's media partners, KRVM, The Chronicle and Lookout-Eugene Springfield, are returning in 2026 to support the party with promotions and advertising designed to spread the word about Lane County's largest free party.  The Block Party powered by SELCO appreciates the print and air space shared by these partners to promote this year’s Downtown extravaganza.

‍

This promotion has supported the rapid growth of the event. In five years, Springfield’s The Block Party has grown from 1500 to 15000 attendees. We believe the growth in citizen attendance demonstrates the need for events like this that bring humans together.  “It just makes sense,” says event organizer Trudy Bauchery, “that people want to gather to celebrate the tremendous growth Springfield has experienced in the last ten years.”

KRVM has been supporting The Block Party since 2022 with on air sponsorship spots. The Chronicle, our local newspaper, serves hyper-local news to Springfield, Creswell, Cottage Grove & Pleasant Hill and runs both digital and print spots, promoting the children’s and adult activities each year. Lookout Eugene-Springfield, returning for their second year, offers "community-centric news and resources" in their award-winning digital newspaper, as well as their app and targeted newsletters.

One Magical Night, Many Years in the Making.

Returning for its 7th year, Springfield's The Block Party 2026 powered by SELCO features live music, local food, craft beverages and family friendly games in historic Downtown Springfield.
