The City of Cambridge is excited to announce the 24th annual Dance Party, a vibrant 90s-themed event that brings together residents and visitors for an unforgettable night of throwback fun, music and dancing. Held on Friday, June 28, from 6-10 p.m., thousands of people are expected to gather in front of Cambridge City Hall (795 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, MA) to kick off the summer season. For the second year in a row, the Dance Party will expand its footprint all the way to Prospect Street.

The Dance Party, an increasingly popular tradition since its inception in 1996, has become a highlight of the City's social calendar. This year's event is organized by the City of Cambridge, City Manager's Office, Cambridge Arts Council, and the Central Square BID.

The festivities will feature three local DJs (DJ Baby Indiglo, DJ Nomadik, and DJ ReaL P) and an evening filled with upbeat music, beats, and dancing. As the sun sets, the atmosphere will be further enhanced by a stunning colorful light show, creating a magical ambiance that will captivate partygoers of all ages. In addition to music and the light show, the event will consist of engaging pop-up performances throughout the night. Attendees are invited to stop at the Temple Street block for Play Street activities as well as other exciting and illuminating interactive activities.

The event is free and open to the public. We encourage everyone to come together and celebrate the vibrant spirit of Cambridge. Conveniently located just two blocks away from Central Square, Cambridge City Hall is easily accessible via the MBTA Red Line (note: The Kendall/MIT Outbound – Boston to Cambridge – Station will be closed on June 28 after 8:45 p.m.).

Mark your calendars for Friday, June 28, and get ready to dance the night away with friends, family, and the greater Cambridge community.
