Join the Port of Everett for a day of family fun at the waterfront during the 18th annual Holiday on the Bay festival taking place Saturday, Dec. 6, from noon – 6 p.m. at Waterfront Place.
Rain or shine, festivalgoers will gather in and around the Port’s Pacific Rim Plaza, near Hotel Indigo (1028 13th Street, Everett, WA 98201), to enjoy the day’s outdoor festivities including a pop-up holiday market, free family fun like winter-themed crafts; face painting and balloon creations; touch-a-truck; s’mores roasting at fire pits; character meet-and-greets and more.
The day’s fun leads up to the annual waterfront tree-lighting ceremony, an appearance from Santa by boat and a lighted boat parade.
The annual Marine Toys for Tots holiday toy drive drop-off, a food drive with Volunteers of America Western Washington, photo-worthy lighting displays, food vendors, and holiday specials at select waterfront restaurants are also on the agenda.
