We have a lot of festivals all over Seattle. Festivals are a great opportunity to meet new people from various nationalities and try many kinds of food from different ethnic groups. People from all over the world sell clothes, jewelry and crafts and you'll hear a variety of music, as well. Festivals bring out the diversity in Seattle and you will see humans of all sizes, shapes, and colors. Festivals are an excellent place to spend your time.

Bite of Seattle
People enjoy the Bite of Seattle, which is always located in Seattle Center. If you enjoy tasting foods from many different cultures then the Bite of Seattle is the place for you to go. The Bite of Seattle happens every year in late July. For most people, this festival is a reason to celebrate their happiness.
