For the coming week, Seattle and the surrounding area turn into a big playground for impressions: from boat rides and culinary tours of the Pike Place Market to concerts at Climate Pledge and open-air evenings in the city’s parks. The program includes weekend-format festivals and fairs, the Seafair parades, chamber music in the “mobile” format of The Concert Truck, and also sports evenings with baseball games and racing on the track. Even if you just want to catch the mood of summer, there’s an event here for almost every taste and budget.
The selection is compiled from event listings and materials from https://www.events12.com/seattle/.
