The U District Street Fair will take over 10 blocks for a celebration of art & music

Love a good street fest? Good news, The U District Street Fair returns this weekend!

The U District Street Fair is back for its 53rd year, and it all goes down on May 18th and 19th, 2024. It’s a celebration of local art, music, and culture that brings together artists, performers, and vendors from all over the region.

The Fair takes place over two days on University Way aka “The Ave.” The fair takes over 10 blocks-with arts and crafts, live music, and over 40 food trucks and booths.

This local tradition regularly attracts over 50,000 visitors and for the first year in its history, is accessible by link light rail which will transport visitors to the middle of the event at NE 43rd Street.

The fair is a great place to meet up with friends and simply explore all that there is to offer. Each year is a little bit different and if you feel up to it you can always walk the University campus or check out places like the Henry Art Gallery. Who knows what you’ll find!

Best of all, attending the fair is free. So mark your calendars and get ready to enjoy a tried and true Seattle tradition.
