Hello June, have we really have made it here this year? Seattle schools gets out near the end of the month and it truly doesn’t feel real yet after the last few soggy days. There are definitely a lot of things things to do in June in Seattle though (like have you been somewhere to get pictures with lupines?) and here are the few big events I’m looking forward to around our city this month:
Fremont Solstice Parade and festival (June 22nd weekend)
The Fremont Solstice Parade takes place on June 22nd at 1pm and the festival will happen all weekend long. I still remember the first time we went to the Solstice Parade and it definitely feels like a Seattle event. Make sure you read about it before you go.
Seattle Pridefest weekend (June 29/30)
This is one of the best weekends in our city. You can find more details about Seattle Pridefest 2024 here.
$3 scoops at Cupcake Royale in West Seattle
Cupcake Royale in West Seattle just announced $3 scoops through June at their shop.
Berry picking in Seattle
June is when berry picking starts up in our area and I recently compiled a list of recommendations for strawberry fields near Seattle. Keep an eye out for Duris Farms which has the closest strawberries. Remlinger Farms is a fun theme park for the 8 and under set with a “big” little roller coaster to get them prepared for places like Disneyland. We love fresh berries with Dutch babies and I have my go-to recipe linked in this post.
Leavenworth Adventure Park
Hopefully we get a chance to head to Leavenworth this summer but it’s so hard to plan because we have soccer tournaments. Leavenworth just opened its adventure park last year with Washington’s first alpine coaster. These tiny homes might be a good place to book nearby if you’re headed to the area.
Free things in Seattle in summer
I have a list of free things in our city that happen in the summer. Things like Free First Thursday for museums happen on the first Thursday in June. There is also a free waterfront shuttle that will take you around the city and this runs through the summer.
Do you know of any more June Seattle things?
These are only a few of things that are happening in Seattle in June-I try to keep the list short and sweet so it’s not too overwhelming. But if you have something fabulous to add to my Things to do in Seattle in June list, please let me know! And I hope you are enjoying our fabulous Seattle weather! Also, if it’s getting close to next month, here are ideas for things to do in Seattle in July.
(PS If you are looking to travel from our area this summer, here are some of the direct flights from Seattle. Here are also the 3 cheapest flight destinations from Seattle in the summer for 2024. It’s also a great time to visit Vancouver.
