nw folklife festival

Celebrating the 49th annual Folk Life Festival in Seattle.  A free and open festival with a huge list of activities to participate in or watch.  From dancing, film, musical performances, crafts, the list goes on and on.  Watch bollywood dancers, learn to do swing dance, listen to storytellers… you can create your own schedule on-line.   This is about connecting with people who have similar interests as you. What do you like to do? Find new connections here.

Since 1972, the annual Northwest Folklife Festival has been a community-powered celebration of the music, arts, and heritage that make up the brilliant cultural tapestry of the greater Pacific Northwest. With over 5,000 performers on 20+ stages, 200 vendors, 500 volunteers, and upwards of 250,000 attendees, this remains one of the largest access-for-all festivals in the nation. The festival is more than a celebration of the diversity of the Pacific Northwest, it’s a chance to engage directly with the many communities that make up our region. This is the place to find your folk.
