Bumbershoot

53 years. Still the most surprising weekend in Seattle. Bumbershoot returns to Seattle Center, Labor Day Weekend, Sept 5 & 6. Music. Art. Food. The wonderfully weird.

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. 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.
