IDFA to host 38th annual Capitol Hill Ice Cream Party on June 22
The event brings together thousands of guests, including members of Congress and officials from the executive branch, to showcase America’s favorite frozen treat.
The International Dairy Foods Association (IDFA), Washington, D.C.,
announced the return of the annual Capitol Hill Ice Cream Party to the
National Mall on June 22, 2022. The party has been an essential summertime event for members of Congress, their families, Capitol Hill staff and many other special guests since it began in 1983. However, IDFA did not hold the event in 2020 or 2021 due to the pandemic.
The celebration on the National Mall just outside the U.S. Capitol Building is one of Washington’s most anticipated for professionals working in food and agriculture, IDFA said. It brings together thousands of guests, including members of Congress and officials from the executive branch, in a fun event showcasing America’s favorite frozen treat. Because IDFA and the U.S. dairy industry are committed to a more sustainable future, this year’s event will offer bowls, cups, spoons and napkins made from post-consumer recycled materials, and recycling bins will be made available by IDFA for recycling waste from the event.
