Sunday, August 10th - 10am to 9:30pm

This is a free event with activities including live music by Kellie Pickler and Smashmouth!

Fun for the entire family!

This year they feature a giant storytelling tent, a 20' paintable mural, arts and craft vendors, a scrumptious salmon barbecue prepared by the Stillaguamish Tribe, and live music by a variety of local bands.

The mission of the festival is to help people who live and work in the Stillaguamish Watershed and surrounding regions understand how their actions can help make their environment cleaner for people, fish and wildlife. The Tribe recorded at least 8000 attendees at the 2007 Festival of the River.
