“GAME ON and It’s time to roll the dice, stack the Jenga blocks, and climb the Chutes & Ladders of hope at the Concern Foundation 50th Annual Block Party! Hollywood’s premier outdoor food, beverage, and entertainment extravaganza, transforms the backlot of Paramount Studios Hollywood into the ultimate life-sized game board on Saturday, July 19, 2025, from 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM. This year marks the golden milestone of 50 incredible years of giving cancer the checkmate, as over 4,000 guests will be treated to a Trivial Pursuit of flavor featuring tastings from over 90 top-tier restaurants, spirits, craft cocktails, wineries, and breweries all while raising critical funds for cancer research!”
“The event promises a game night of epic proportions as the streets of the Paramount Backlot transform into a Candy Land of culinary creativity, retro bowling, and musical-fueled celebration. Musical performances by the Tom Nolan Band and on the Main Stage, D' City Sound & Events, and The Vibrato Grill Jazz Stage featuring the Jason Goldstein Sextet with Lilli Passero, and other special artists will set the tone for a high-energy atmosphere.”
“In 1968, fifteen Los Angeles based couples came together with one simple goal: CONquer CanCER Now! They wanted to ensure their dollars counted in the fight against cancer when their dear friend, Beverly Wolman, was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 35. They could no longer sit back and continue losing friends to this horrific disease. Thus, CONCERN Foundation's war on cancer had begun. Concern Foundation’s mission is clear, to ensure that every dollar raised is used to identify the cause of and eventual cure for this devastating disease.”
Derek Alpert, the President of the Concern Foundation for Cancer Research joins us with a preview of the 50th Annual Block Party.
