There's a lot more to the Ballard SeafoodFest than just salmon! Founded in 1974 to celebrate the neighborhood's Nordic roots and connection to the fishing industry, the event has since blossomed into a FREE two-day festival with arts and crafts, a beer garden, and an amazing musical line-up. (And, of course, still plenty of seafood!)
This year's headliners include KEXP faves Mudhoney, The Helio Sequence, Smokey Brights, Eldridge Gravy & The Court Supreme, Polyrhythmics, Fly Moon Royalty, and several more! Check out the complete line-up and schedule of times below. Set your sights for the bright lights of Market Streets and adjoining blocks!Saturday, July 9th
