Seattle Has An Everything Under The Umbrella Festival For Labor Day

August 27, 2009 at 3:49 PM | by kjb | 0 Comments

If hot air balloons and chuck wagons aren’t in your plans for Labor Day, there’s still plenty of other ideas for you to waste away your holiday weekend.

One of the best festivals of the year is Bumbershoot 2009, and it’s conveniently taking place at Seattle Center from September 5-7. Film, theatre, arts, and of course music, will all be yours to enjoy. So grab a triple venti something or other and hit the festival running.

Seattle’s Music and Arts Festival has been kicking around since 1971, so they must be doing something right. It’s the largest urban arts festival in North America, and that’s probably why they expect over 150,000 people to come check it out.

Thankfully, they’ve got some cool interactive schedules so you can plan your time at the festival right down to the minute. Katy Perry, Jason Mraz, and Modest Mouse will be just a few of the big name artists hitting the main stage. Just remember to save some time for the other stuff too, like comedians Patton Oswalt and Charlyne Yi.

Tickets will set you back $50 per day at this point, and they’ll be happy to hook you up with a three day pass for only $120. There’s other fancy ticket packages if you want to flaunt your platinum ticket pass to all your friends. Just make sure to head to the performances you don’t want to miss early; some of the performance space is limited and you don’t want to miss out on getting a seat.
