For those 21 years and older, the SeafoodFest Beer + Cocktail Garden also opens on Friday evening and several food trucks will be available for all ages.
The fun continues Saturday and Sunday with the full assortment of food vendors, beverages and activities. In addition to the SeafoodFest MainStage musical performances, the Illumination Learning Studio Kids’ Deck will take over Ballard Commons Park. Festi-Bowl, an all-ages all-skill levels skateboarding competition, will take over the Ballard Commons skateboard bowl. The Beer + Cocktail Garden will feature locally crafted beers, ciders, wine and cocktails. There will be dozens of hand-crafted arts and crafts vendors; seafood-inspired food vendors; the Lutefisk Eating Competition which promises to disgust and delight; and as always, the famous Trident Seafoods sponsored Alder-Smoked Salmon Barbeque that started it all fifty years ago!
