Get revved up for the F1 Powerboat Nationals at the Downtown Alton Block Party on Friday, July 17, from 5:30–8:30 p.m.!

Kick off race weekend by meeting the F1 drivers, enjoying cold drinks and delicious local food, shopping for official F1 merchandise, and soaking up live music from LeadFoot at Catdaddy's Tavern.
Street seating will be available, so grab a seat and don't miss Gentelin's famous wings and pizza, served throughout the evening at Catdaddy's.

It's the perfect way to celebrate before the boats hit the water. See you downtown!
