Salmon Days Festival
2026-10-03 10:00 - 2026-10-04 18:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | WA
The Greater Issaquah Chamber of Commerce is proud to present Salmon Days, the largest two-day festival in Washington State.
This beloved, family-friendly event began in 1970 as a replacement for Issaquah’s aging Labor Day Festival and was created to celebrate the remarkable return of salmon to spawn in Issaquah Creek. That mission—combining education, community, and fun in a uniquely local way—remains at the heart of the festival today.
With nearly 600 booths, two live entertainment stages, two beer gardens, and a family-friendly Field of Fun, plus a food court featuring more than 75 vendors, Salmon Days offers something for everyone.
