FESTI-BOWL
Festi-Bowl is an all-ages, all-abilities skateboard event during the Ballard SeafoodFest! This year’s event is Saturday, July 13th, 2024, from 12-8 PM at Ballard Commons Park. The event showcases organized skateboarding in a positive environment and highlights the unique attributes of the sport.
Festi-Bowl started in 2014, taking advantage of the existing skateboard features of Ballard Commons Park and adding more kid-friendly activities during the Ballard SeafoodFest. Much like skateboarding, Festi-Bowl is meant to be inclusive for all who come. Whether learning the first turns or mastering bowl tricks, all are welcome to enjoy.
Festi-Bowl is made possible by the Ballard Alliance, several sponsors, and a lot of volunteer energy. If you plan to attend as a participant or volunteer, please check the schedule and consider pre-registering by DMing @festibowl on Instagram.
