-Last updated: 7/26/22 and will continue updating as more dates become available.

 

Who else is excited for the warmth of the sun and all the summer fun?

I know I am! 

For years I’ve been putting together a big list of events happening in the Pierce County area. Just to help me organize all the events I think my family would enjoy attending. Having a list down makes it easy to plan your calendar, or if you’re trying to come up with something fun to do, it’s a nice reference.

 

This will be our first summer living in Kitsap County, we can’t wait to explore and check out everything the area has to offer. 

We’ll still be able to enjoy some of the Pierce County events and will keep that post updated, if you want to check it out. 

 

KITSAP COUNTY FAMILY-FRIENDLY

SUMMER FUN

Below you’ll find each town/city and if there’s anything happening this summer. Events will be organized by dates and don’t forget to come back often to see if anything has changed(& visit their website for further info). 

Check out these other local posts on my blog and I can’t wait to write more about Kitsap County;

  • List of Zoos and Aquariums in Washington
  • Unique Places to Stay in Washington
  • Kitsap County Birthday Party Locations for Kids & Teens

 

Save this post, share it, and/or print it. Please leave me a comment if you have something you’d like me to add, because we’re new to the area and have a lot to explore!
