Summer in Seattle means one thing above all else: get outside while you can. And this year we're doing exactly that, right alongside you. We're proud to partner with and sponsor a handful of Summer events happening across Seattle and beyond over the next several weeks, and we'd love to see you at any (or all) of them.
Here's what's on the calendar.
Gardens and Gems: Seattle LGBTQ+ Center's Summer Fundraiser Event
July 10, 2026
We're kicking things off tonight by supporting the Seattle LGBTQ+ Center's summer fundraiser, Gardens and Gems. It's a great cause and an even better excuse to spend an evening with people who care about this city as much as we do.
West Seattle Junction FC vs. Portland Bangers: Fan Appreciation MatchDay
July 12, 2026
We're set up right at the match for Fan Appreciation Day. Swing by the Rooted Northwest table for free swag, giveaways, and a taste of our Summer Essentials. There will be free cotton candy, music, and yard games all afternoon, so bring the whole crew.
Activities start at 1:00pm, kickoff is at 2:00pm.
Timberfest
July 23-25, 2026
If you haven't been out to Tolt-MacDonald Park in Carnation, this is your sign. Timberfest brings music, kids' activities, arts vendors, and a full weekend of small-town summer charm to King County. It's a bit of a drive from the city, but it's worth every mile.
The Second Annual Mike's Chili Parlor Music Festival
July 31 - August 1, 2026
You can't get more hyper-local than a music festival held at a Ballard institution. Mike's Chili Parlor is back for its second annual festival, and if last year was any indication, this is one you don't want to miss.
Boob-a-Palooza Fundraising Concert
August 19, 2026
Save the date. We'll be at Obec Brewing for this fundraising concert, and ticket details are coming soon. Stay tuned.
See You Out There
Seattle summers are short and we intend to make the most of this one, right alongside our neighbors. If you spot the Rooted Northwest table at any of these events, come say hi. We'd genuinely love to meet you.
