More About Edmonds
Details
Celebrated as an arts community, Edmonds is a walkable waterfront town on the Puget Sound with inviting sandy beaches, stunning views, and engaging public art. Vibrant flowers color the streets, a hallmark of this charming, artistic town. It is one of the friendliest towns in Western Washington, and in many ways Edmonds retains the character of the early part of the century, but with a contemporary edge.
Festivals and events fill the calendar all year round in Edmonds, including a popular Saturday Summer Market, Waterfront Festival, 4th of July Parade, Taste of Edmonds, Classic Car Show, and Jazz Festival. June brings the Edmonds Arts Festival, celebrated as one of the oldest, largest, and most successful juried arts festivals in the state. In July and August the Edmonds Arts Commission presents free concerts at City Park on Sunday afternoons and in October hosts the Write on the Sound writers’ conference.
