Saturday, June 7-Sunday, June 8: Maritime Gig Festival

Gig Harbor

By Volcano Staff on June 2, 2014

Nothing says good times like family fun and a whole crapload of pirate references. By the look of things, that's exactly what's in store for those headed to the 2014 Maritime Gig Festival in Gig Harbor. Expect wholesome treats such as a fun run, a Kiwanis pancake feed, a "Yo Ho Harbor Grande Parade," Steve Stefanowicz and other musicians, and what's billed as the "Round Rock Contest." We have no idea what a "Round Rock Contest" is, but it sounds AWESOME! The festival stretches all weekend in downtown Gig Harbor, along Harborview Drive, between Pioneer and Rosedale, and along the waterfront near Jerisich Dock and Skansie Brother's Park.

MARITIME GIG FESTIVAL, 8 a.m. breakfast, 9 a.m. fun run, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday, June 7; 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. June 8, downtown Gig Harbor, 3125 Judson St., Gig Harbor, free admission, 253.851.6865
