The DC Scoop will feature 15 local ice cream and gelato companies doling out free ice cream to all!

Music, face painters, giveaways and other happenings appropriate for all ages.

This tasting event and culinary competition is a kid friendly event with plenty of activities for the whole family (sign your child up for the children's ice cream eating contest - under 21 only, we ID).

And it's all FREE!

The following vendors will be serving their delicious treats:

- Plush Gelato
- Dolcezza Gelato
- Sinplicity Ice Cream

We have enlisted the help of DC food scene activists and community influencers to sit on the DC Scoop Judges' Panel. If you don't like the idea of the winner's fate being in hands other than your own, fear not! All DC Scoop attendees will cast a vote and help their favorite vendor capture the Consumers' Choice award.

In addition to tasting delicious ice cream (and gelato, custard, and frozen yogurt) at the DC Scoop, you can also enjoy live music, face painting, balloon artistry, and mingling with other community members and ice cream connoisseurs.

A Tented Event! Happening Rain or Shine!

The event is Metro accessible, located walking distance to the New York Ave/Gallaudet University stop on the Red Line.
