5th Annual Rock The Block Is On!

             

Home Team BBQ hosts the 5th annual Rock the Block fundraiser and
blowout block party. Saturday, February 25th from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m join the fun in front of the downtown
Williman Street Home Team BBQ location. The event’s mission is to raise funds and awareness for
families affected by pediatric brain cancer through donations to Hogs for the Cause, MUSC Shawn
Jenkins, and Ronald McDonald House of Charleston. Aaron Siegel, Chief Operation
Partner/Pitmaster says, “Rock the Block is truly one of our favorite events because it combines all the
things we love to do; food, music, good vibes, and we get to do it all to raise money for a great cause”. In
2022 the group raised over $160,000 for Hogs for the Cause between Rock the Block and Holy Smokes
BBQ Festival in November, plus a $10,000 donation to the Ronald McDonald House of Charleston.
Guests will rock on Williman Street to Josh Roberts & The Hinges, Empire Strikes Brass, and Headliner -
Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears, the Texas-based singer and guitarist whose full-bodied music blends
the past and present of blues, soul, and R&B.

A general admission ticket to Rock the block includes three live music acts with the opportunity to
purchase food and drinks from six award-winning guest chefs and two large bars with beer, wine, and
cocktails. This year you can expect more block to rock. The group has expanded the event to add another
bar area, as well as, a larger VIP area. Kick it up a notch with the VIP experience. Adult VIP tickets will
include all-you-can-enjoy offerings from an additional group of chefs and an open bar. Yes, an open
bar...but please party responsibly!
