SummerFEST has it all: food trucks, beer gardens, flying trapeze, live music, fire dancers, a pop-up skate park, a car show, a balloon glow, and interactive sports and arts for all ages. If you’re coming in from out of town, we recommend reserving your hotel room in advance. Even if you’re a local, it’s a good idea to head to Fort Steilacoom Park early to nab the best free parking!
