Join us for the fifth annual Waterfront Block Party as we celebrate the fully realized 20-acre Waterfront Park during our biggest gathering of the season! Enjoy live music, dance, food trucks and family-friendly activities at Pier 62, Salish Steps, Pier 58 and neighboring waterfront businesses.

This is not merely a celebration but an opportunity to come together to ensure Waterfront Park continues to thrive as a vibrant gathering space, reflecting the diverse tapestry of our community.
