The week of March 7–13 promises a true kaleidoscope of experiences in Seattle and the surrounding area: from the large-scale Emerald City Comic Con and a vibrant Lunar New Year celebration in the International District to musical nights — from indie-folk Joseph and Miguel’s hits to Cirque du Soleil’s "Echo" in Redmond; there will also be performances at the Paramount and 5th Avenue theatres, food and drink festivals (Bellevue Bourbon Bash, Penn Cove MusselFest, Snohomish Wine Festival), local fairs and shows (Tacoma Beer Week, Seattle Miniature Show, Tacoma Remodeling Expo), a series of intimate Candlelight Concerts and "Music at Benaroya", and for active recreation fans there are hot air balloon festivals in Winthrop and Discover Pass Free Days for Washington state parks — all this and dozens more events across neighborhoods and suburbs to suit every taste.
