The biggest event in town is coming - and you can be part of it!
Located on breathtaking Fidalgo Island, gateway to the San Juans, the Anacortes Arts Festival hosts more than 230 booth artisans, produces a highly acclaimed fine art show, and averages 80,000-100,000 visitors during the first weekend in August.
The 65th annual Festival will be held July 31 through August 2, 2026. Our exciting Festival is a free public event that includes two stages of entertainment daily, beer garden, wine bar, fine art show, working studios, and youth area dedicated for kids and family activities.
