Seattle summer feels like Seattle summer again now that Bumbershoot is back in action. Bumbershoot is a full-spectrum arts and music experience—from punk to performance art, ballet to wrestling, pole dancing to roller skating, food to fashion, and all manner of ingenuity in between. In short: it's a celebration of the Pacific Northwest’s unique culture. Celebrating creators and innovators of all kinds, Bumbershoot breaks stereotypes, champions a more inclusive art community and bets on the dreamers, makers and performers who call the Pacific Northwest home. It is Seattle’s moss-covered Mardi Gras, daring everyone to join in the spectacle.
