About this Event
Afro HRS Block Party: The Final Prattform
The Prattform is back.
On Sunday, October 18 from 2–6 PM, Afro HRS returns to Pratt Street for an afternoon rooted in music, culture, community, and connection.
The Afro HRS Block Party: The Final Prattform brings together Afrobeats lovers, families, creatives, local artists, small businesses, and community members for another gathering in the heart of Downtown Hartford.
Expect Afrobeats + more, local vendors, games, and good energy throughout the afternoon, with plenty of opportunities to shop local and support the businesses that help make Pratt Street a destination.
The Prattform has always been about creating that familiar, family-reunion feeling where people can come as they are, connect with one another, discover something new, and enjoy the music.
