Celebrate the Summer Solstice in Seattle at the Fremont Fair and Solstice Parade on June 18th and 19th. The street festival encourages attendees to wine and dine, shop and dance, and generally make new friends and express their creativity during one of Mother Nature's most magical nights. The Solstice Parade is a particular spectacle to see, with nude, body-painted cyclists, creative floats, and over-the-top costumes. While you'll spend most of your time wandering from booth to booth admiring handcrafted products, you'll also want to take a break in the beer gardens and enjoy a cold one to cool off from the summer heat. You can also rest to watch the talented street performers display their amazing and unique talents. Learn more from the official website.
