Northwest Folklife is proud to announce the full schedule for the 2018 Northwest Folklife Festival, presented by Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, and scheduled for May 25-28, 2018 (Memorial Day Weekend). For 47 years, the Northwest Folklife Festival has been Seattle’s traditional kick-off to summer, bringing up to 250,000 people to the grounds of Seattle Center in the heart of the city. For all these years, Northwest Folklife has been committed to keeping the festival open with access for all, no tickets and no gates. After the call was sounded last year to keep the Northwest Folklife Festival on solid footing with community support and donations, Northwest Folklife is looking to continue this support at the festival, asking a suggested donation of $10 per person or $20 per family per day. For the people, by the people, the Northwest Folklife Festival welcomes all.
