Concert Series

Starting Saturday and Sunday before the Festival and continuing through Festival weekend, concerts will feature northwest favorites on the KPLU Stage at the Port warehouse "Transit Shed Event Center." Limited seating makes this an intimate venue - the addition of wine for purchase and the waterfront setting make Concerts at the Port a sell-out Festival favorite.
