@ the Fest – Family Fun

The Sustainable Ballard Festival offers fun and excitement for the whole family, welcoming kids and kids at heart alike to celebrate community and sustainability in style!

Get creative at the Bubble Wand Workshop, where you can craft your very own unique bubble wand. Then, take your creation for a spin with our giant Bucket of Bubbles — watch as colorful bubbles float and dance through the air, creating magical moments for all ages.

Join the thrilling Rubber Ducky Races, where adorable rubber ducks race around the stream powered entirely by solar energy. Cheer on your duck as it glides along the water, and experience the power of clean, renewable energy in action!

Find your rhythm at the Hula Hoop Station, where you can pick from a variety of colorful hoops and swing them to lively tunes. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro, this playful activity will have you moving and grooving in no time.

Race to the future with the Solar Race Track, where solar-powered cars zoom around a thrilling track. Choose your favorite model, place it at the starting line, and watch it speed around powered by the sun’s energy — a fast-paced lesson in sustainability and fun!

Finally, savor the flavors of fall at our Apple Cider Station. Roll up your sleeves and help clean fresh apples before feeding them into the grinder. Then, press out delicious, fresh apple juice to enjoy or take home — a hands-on experience connecting you to the season’s harvest and the joy of homemade treats.

Come join us for a day filled with laughter, learning, and lively activities that celebrate sustainability and community spirit. The Sustainable Ballard Festival is a place where fun meets eco-friendly living for everyone!
