Seattle Boba Fest

Each year, bubble tea lovers came from across the Greater Seattle area to celebrate the U District as the capital of bubble tea in the Pacific Northwest with the annual Seattle Boba Fest! Neighborhood shops and restaurants featured wide array of traditional and unique bubble tea flavors as well as a variety of boba-inspired desserts, cocktails, and shopping specials! This event is organized by The U District Partnership to celebrate Seattle’s boba culture and our city’s highest concentration of bubble tea cafes and restaurants, here in the U District.

Attendees will be invited to visit nearly 30 participating U District shops, each featuring a unique boba drink, dessert, or retail special in honor of the occasion. Featured items include:

Milk Tea Ice Cream Parfait at Sweet Alchemy Ice Creamery

Ube Brown Sugar Boba Creme Brulee Milk at The Alley

Bobastar Martini at Shultzy’s Bar & Grill

Honeydew Crystal Boba Milk Tea at Master Bing

New this year! Seattle Boba Fest is introducing Boba Quest, a selfie scavenger hunt through six participating shops. Attendees who complete the quest and the event survey can pick up a prize at The U District Partnership’s Welcome Tent, including an exclusive Seattle Boba Quest sticker, with the first 75 finishers also receiving a commemorative reusable boba jar.
