ADULT SWIM REVEALS FESTIVAL BLOCK PARTY SCHEDULE AND NEW FAN EVENTS

Nine New Music and Comedy Acts Join Packed Performance Line-up and Show Panels

Human Claw Machine, Free Treats, Custom Craft Beer, Exclusive Merch and a Weekend of Giveaways Featured at Inaugural Block Party in Philly

With less than a month until the Adult Swim Festival Block Party, Adult Swim unveils new details about the attractions, activities and acts that await fans in Philadelphia. Taking place Friday, August 5 through Sunday, August 7, 2022 in the colorful neighborhood of Fishtown, the series of events will feature an ongoing outdoor celebration of music, comedy and fandom.

The dynamic schedule of over 15 events throughout the Fillmore Campus will include headliners Run The Jewels, Dethklok and Philadelphia-native Tierra Whack, alongside panels for Adult Swim series Rick and Morty, Aqua Teen Hunger Force and SMILING FRIENDS. Additional acts just announced include: Brandon Wardell, Chill Moody, Conner O'Malley, Craig Conant, DeathbyRomy, Frank D Neblett, Jon DelCollo, Reggie Conquest, and Rosebud Baker.

Fans who can't make it to Philly can also enjoy watching rebroadcast highlights from music performances, panels, as well as fan favorite episodes as a part of a global live stream on Adult Swim's YouTube channel throughout the weekend.

Ticketed events will be taking place at The Fillmore Philly, The Foundry, Punch Line Philly and Brooklyn Bowl Philadelphia. Buying a ticket to any of the live shows gains access throughout the weekend to the Adult Swim Block Party located at the Fillmore Campus & Other Half Brewing. The surrounding area (W. Laurel Street, Canal Street, E. Allen Street) will be closed off to traffic so that attendees can enjoy three days of attractions, food, and fun featuring a collection of local vendors.

Adult Swim Block Party ticket-holders can access all the fun Friday from 4:30 p.m. - 10:30 p.m. and Saturday/Sunday from 12:00 p.m. - 10:30 p.m. Get your first look here.

Wendy's(R) is coming to the party and bringing a human claw machine and exclusive treats! Select fans will get the chance to be lowered into a pit of prizes to grab from a variety of Rick and Morty swag. Making its East Coast debut at the Adult Swim Block Party, attendees can get their hands (and taste buds) on the limited-edition Pickle Rick Frosty(R) - a pickle twist on the iconic Frosty. Fans can also enjoy free samples from Wendy's breakfast menu - Wubba Lubba Grub Grub!

On site to cool fans off and beat the summer heat, Klondike will be giving out free Klondike Cones. "What Would You Do?" to score one of these delicious and iconic treats? Just head to the Adult Swim Festival!

To celebrate the upcoming Adult Swim Festival Block Party, Adult Swim and Other Half Brewing have collaborated on a limited edition pale ale, [adult beer], brewed at their new Fishtown location. The delicious new brew will be available for a limited time leading up to and during the Adult Swim Festival exclusively at the Other Half taproom and other festival locations including the Block Party's official Beer Garden.

Exclusive event merchandise will include tee-shirts, hoodie, sweatshirt, fanny pack, hat, and poster, all featuring artwork of the eye-catching Adult Swim Festival Block Party design from Atlanta artist George Baker.
