Best Seattle Bars Blog

You might have already seen that I posted a blog about going to Gas works park on the 4th, but there are a ton of other options as well.  I am actually going to spend an entire week in Crescent Bar from the 29th to the 6th.  Hopefully I don’t get too burned.  I have that beautiful pale/fair skin.  I guess its the red hair, but I guess that’s what sun block is for.

For everyone who is staying in Seattle and not sure what to do, here are a few options you might want to check out.

I know the fourth is still a little bit away, but it is never too late to start planning your evening. Whatever you decide to do you should probably start early. The last few years I’ve gone to Gas works park and it was an amazing show. It can get a little crowded but is worth it. Here is some more information if you are interested in attending the park.

Seattle, WA – For the seventh consecutive year, Seattle-based Washington Mutual will present
the WaMu Family 4th at Lake Union’s Gas Works Park (2101 N. Northlake Way). The free
admission, full day, family tradition takes place from noon to 11pm on Independence Day and

blues and jazz singer Francine Reed and a Lake Union flyover by a Fort Lewis-based Army Reserve
Chinook helicopter. The day-long celebration culminates at approximately 10pm with a worldrenowned
fireworks show within the natural amphitheater of Lake Union. This year’s event will be
the 20th time Seattle’s 4th of July celebration has been produced by One Reel, the not for profit arts

DAYTIME ACTIVITIES
WaMu Playf ield: The Gas Works Park lawn hosts free fun at the WaMu Playfield: a kind of allday
recess for both kids and adults featuring activities such as the high-flying Extreme Air Quad
Pod, the Amazama Juggling School, enormous inflatable animal slides, and clown-hosted potato
sack races and tug-o-war. Favorite hands-on activities too with Rock Band gaming and photos at
the WaMu exhibit, plus kite making (and flying!) and face painting.
Street Scramble: Families and friends can team up in search of 30 destinations around Gas
Works Park and the Wallingford neighborhood, earning points along the way. This fun Street

parking area) on July 4th or in advance at streetscramble.com.
Red, White and “Blue Thunder”: The Seattle Seahawks’ incomparable drumline “Blue
Thunder” will parade through the park to kick off the fireworks celebration. Event activities will
also include dazzling dance routines by the SeaGals and the opportunity to meet Blitz, the team’s
mascot, at the Seahawks booth.
Francine Reed: The 2008 WaMu Family 4th is thrilled to have jazz and blues singer Francine

Lovett’s Large Band. Reed returns to Seattle this summer for her sixth engagement with Teatro
ZinZanni, June 26 – October 19 in “Quest for a Queendom.”
Chinook Helicopter Flyover: One of the many favorite traditions of the WaMu Family 4th is
the inspiring sight of an Army Reserve Chinook helicopter, flying a 30’ x 60’ US flag while circling
over Lake Union to the sound of Ray Charles’ rendition of “America the Beautiful.” This year’s
flyover will be handled by “A” Company, Fifth of the 159th Aviation Regiment (“The Hookers”)

display, orchestrated by master pyrotechnic designer Eric Tucker of Pyro Spectaculars. The
fireworks team has spent the last year hand selecting the most awe inspiring fireworks from around
the world for display in Seattle this 4th of July.
The fireworks show is perfectly synchronized to an original score amplified throughout the park
featuring patriotic anthems, celebratory songs, and family favorite hits spanning decades. Those
viewing the display from around Lake Union are encouraged to listen to the soundtrack simulcast on
local radio stations 106.1 KISS FM, 96.5 JACK FM, and KZOK 102.5 FM. KING 5 TV will once
