While the words “music festival” usually conjure up images of fans filling an empty grassy area, the Capitol Hill Block Party instead takes over the streets of the Capitol Hill area of Seattle for three days of music from multiple genres. This year, Capitol Hill Block Party fills the streets with music from multiple stages from July 19 to 21 in Seattle.

The 2024 Capitol Hill Block Party brings headliners like the Grammy Award-winning Kaytranada, singer-songwriter Remi Wolf, and alternative acoustic and electric artist Still Woozy to eight stages. The rain-or-shine event fills the streets with music, fans, food, and other events and activities.

While some tickets are already sold out for the July event, Capitol Hill Block Party still has some original tickets, including three-day passes and VIP tickets. Single-day tickets are sold out for the initial day, with a few tickets available from verified resellers like StubHub and Vivid Seats.

If you want to be one of the fans taking over the streets of Seattle, here’s what you need to know about the event and how to buy tickets to the Capitol Hill Block Party.

The festival also offers combo tickets for both The Capitol Hill Block Party and Day in Day Out festival, the latter of which takes place from July 12 to 14.

Gracie Abrams’ newest album, “The Secret of Us,” is out soon, and fans won’t have to wait long to hear her perform it live since she kicks off her US tour in September. Although original tickets have sold out, there are still a few options to explore when it comes to how to get Gracie Abrams tickets.

The 24-year-old singer-songwriter first rose to fame around 2020 when she released her debut extended play, “Minor.” Among the singles on the EP was “I Miss You, I’m Sorry,” which took TikTok by storm and has become Abrams’ most-streamed song on Spotify. Abrams’ career continued to take off with her “This Is What It Feels Like” tour in 2022, followed by her debut album, “Good Riddance,” and subsequent tour in 2023.

The “Close To You” singer opened for Olivia Rodrigo’s “Sour” tour and has been a supporting fixture on Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. She opened for Swift in the first North American leg of the tour, with the two even dueting  “I Miss You, I’m Sorry” together, and is scheduled to return to opening act duties for the next leg of the North American Eras Tour in November and December. Swift is credited as a collaborator on Abrams’ new song, “Us,” from “The Secret of Us.”

If you’re hoping to find Gracie Abrams tickets, you’ve come to the right place. Below, you’ll find a full breakdown of “The Secret of Us” tour details, including a full schedule, opening act info, and original and resale price comparisons.

Stocks were mixed on Thursday as a multi-day rally to record highs stalled.

• US stocks closed mostly lower Thursday, ending a long streak of gains for the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq.
• Nvidia dropped after soaring to records earlier in the day. 
• Traders were also assessing weak housing-market data and elevated weekly jobless claims. 

US stocks were mixed on Thursday, with the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq ending lower to end a long run of gains that had brought the indexes to a series of record highs.

Nvidia dragged the market lower as the tech giant dropped 3% after rising as much in early morning trading. The firm sank back below Microsoft’s market capitalization after briefly surpassing it to become the most valuable company in the world earlier this week.

The S&P 500 climbed above 5,500 for the first time ever on Thursday before dipping back below that level. The Dow Jones Industrial Average bucked the decline in the other major indexes, rising nearly 300 points in the session.

Here’s where US indexes stood at the 4:00 p.m. closing bell on Thursday:

• S&P 500: 5,473.17, down 0.25%
• Dow Jones Industrial Average: 39,134.76, up 0.77% (+299.90 points)
• Nasdaq composite: 17,721.59, down %0.79

Investors were assessing new economic data that pointed to growing softness in the US economy. Last month, housing starts were the lowest in four years, as homebuilders and homebuyers alike struggled with high financing costs.

Jobless claims were also higher than expected. Though claims dipped slightly week-to-week, 238,000 people sought unemployment benefits last week, close to the highest level in 10 months.

“Economic indicators for the second quarter largely point to another slow quarter of economic activity, including weak retail sales, housing starts, and building permits,” Bill Adams, Chief Economist for Comerica Bank, wrote Thursday.

“At the same time, labor market indicators like initial and continued jobless claims are weakening. This suggests upside risk to the unemployment rate in the June release after it reached 4.0% in May, which was the highest since early 2022.”

Here’s what else happened today:

• Bitcoin’s price movements are sending a warning that stocks are about to sell off.
• These four regions of the US will see electricity bills increase the most this summer.
• China’s yuan has fallen amid concerns about Russian sanctions and central banks’ boosting of dollar holdings.
• There are five reasons investors should use any dip in Nvidia stock as a buying opportunity, BofA says.

In commodities, bonds, and crypto:

• Oil futures rose. West Texas Intermediate crude oil rose by about 1% to $82.34 a barrel. Brent crude, the international benchmark, climbed 0.8% to $85.82 a barrel.
• Gold increased 1% to $2,372.20 per ounce.
• The 10-year Treasury yield climbed three basis points to 4.254%.
• Bitcoin ticked up to $64,961.25.
