SUMMARY:Argosy Cruises Christmas Ship Festival
DESCRIPTION:Since 1949\, a decorated Christmas Ship has sailed around Puget Sound and Lake Washington with a live choir on board\, stopping off waterfront parks for 20-minute concerts piped to shore. You can ride the Spirit of Seattle itself\, join the 21-and-over Follow Boat\, or just show up at a beach with a thermos. Shore stops marked on Argosy's schedule have bonfires or community gatherings. The 2026 route opens Nov. 27 from Pier 55 with a stop off Alki\, then visits Kirkland\, Everett\, Edmonds\, Lake Washington\, Shilshole and Des Moines before a Lake Union finale on Dec. 23.

SUMMARY:Pacific Northwest Ballet: George Balanchine's The Nutcracker
DESCRIPTION:PNB's staging of George Balanchine's Nutcracker fills McCaw Hall from the day after Thanksgiving through Dec. 27\, with the PNB Orchestra in the pit and a show that runs just over two hours\, intermission included. Opening weekend adds lobby photo ops with Snowflakes and Mice and Almond Roca from Tacoma's Brown & Haley. Later dates have their own personalities: a relaxed\, sensory-friendly matinee on Dec. 11\, Beer & Ballet with $5 specials on Dec. 16\, an ugly-sweater night on Dec. 18 and a pajama-day pair of shows on Dec. 27. Audio-described seats are $20.

SUMMARY:Seattle Center Winterfest
DESCRIPTION:Seattle Center's five-week holiday program is mostly free and easy to drop into. The heart of it is the Winter Train & Village in the Armory\, a late-19th-century-style model railway and village that's been a tradition for 50 years; kids can take a turn running the train. Saturdays at noon\, carvers shape ice sculptures at the Mural Amphitheatre\, Friday nights at 6:30 bring free holiday movies in the Armory with hosted cocoa and snacks\, and weekends fill the Armory Stage with choirs\, bands and dancers\, from the Northwest Boychoir to a TubaChristmas.

SUMMARY:Tree Lighting Celebration at Westlake Park
DESCRIPTION:Downtown's holiday season officially starts the day after Thanksgiving\, back in a renovated Westlake Park after last year's move to Westlake Center during construction. From 11 a.m. there are craft tables\, costumed characters and sweets for kids\, and at 5 p.m. the giant tree and star are lit\, followed right away by fireworks. Last year's crowd was around 16\,000\, so take Link or the monorail and stake out a spot by 4. The newly returned holiday carousel opens in the park the same day.

SUMMARY:Westlake Park Holiday Carousel
DESCRIPTION:After a six-year break\, the downtown holiday carousel is back in Westlake Park\, presented by Nordstrom. It turns daily from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. through Jan. 3\, a nice reward after a round of holiday shopping on Pine Street. Rides are a suggested $4 donation that goes back into downtown parks\, and if that isn't possible\, just tell the attendant and hop on. Parents riding with children under 12 ride free. Look out for the giant 25-foot gnomes that pop up around downtown parks from Dec. 4.

SUMMARY:Zoolights at Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium
DESCRIPTION:Tacoma's long-running holiday light show takes over Point Defiance Zoo after dark\, with light displays strung along the zoo's paths above Commencement Bay. It's a walking show rather than an animal visit\, since the exhibits close for the evening\, so come for the lights\, a hot drink and a loop of the grounds. Tickets are timed and sold online in advance\, and Zoolights isn't included with regular admission or zoo membership. Weeknights early in the season tend to be the calmest\, and parking at the zoo is free.

SUMMARY:Snowflake Lane at The Bellevue Collection
DESCRIPTION:Every night at 7 p.m. from the day after Thanksgiving through Christmas Eve\, Bellevue Way between NE 4th and NE 8th turns into a short holiday parade: toy drummers\, dancers\, lighted floats\, music and machine-made snow drifting down over the crowd. With free admission and free parking in the Bellevue Collection garages\, it makes an easy weeknight outing with kids. Claim a curb spot early on weekends\, when the sidewalks fill. Santa holds court for photos inside Bellevue Square during the same run\, and the Downtown Park ice rink is a few blocks away.

SUMMARY:Santa Trains at the Northwest Railway Museum
DESCRIPTION:The Northwest Railway Museum has run Santa trains through the Snoqualmie Valley every year since 1969. Families pick between two rides. The 40-minute Yuletide Express leaves the Snoqualmie Depot\, climbs past Snoqualmie Falls\, and Santa visits every family on board. The two-hour North Pole Limited leaves North Bend for the museum's decorated Railway History Campus\, with cookies\, cocoa\, crafts and a visit with Santa in a restored chapel car before the ride back. Every child gets a gift\, and tickets go fast.

SUMMARY:University District Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Every Saturday\, year-round\, farmers take over University Way NE between 50th and 52nd\, two blocks from the U District light rail station. Winter is the season for squash\, roots\, apples and hardy greens\, and the market's chef demo series keeps going into December: the Husky Culinary Club on Nov. 7\, Anna of Yoka Miso on Dec. 5 and Caroline Wright on Dec. 19. SNAP shoppers get an unlimited dollar-for-dollar match at the manager's booth. Parking in the nearby U Heights lots is a suggested $3 donation\, but the train is easier.

SUMMARY:Proctor Farmers' Market
DESCRIPTION:Tacoma's only year-round farmers market sets up every Saturday in the Proctor District through Dec. 19. Shoppers come from across the city for local vegetables and flowers\, meat and seafood\, artisan foods\, beer and cider\, and prepared food\, usually with a local musician playing and plenty of dogs to watch. The surrounding blocks are full of independent shops\, coffee and restaurants\, which makes it a natural start to a North End Saturday. SNAP shoppers can double their dollars with Market Match at the info booth.

SUMMARY:Lake City Farmers Market (Fall Saturdays)
DESCRIPTION:Lake City's market switches from summer Thursday evenings to Saturday mornings in the fall\, and it keeps going until Dec. 19\, which makes it one of the few seasonal markets in North Seattle still open for holiday cooking. Look for it at NE 125th Street and 28th Avenue NE from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The scale is small and easygoing\, the kind of market where farmers have time to chat. SNAP users can pay with an EBT card directly at select farm stands and get up to $50 a month back on fruit and vegetables.

SUMMARY:Garden d'Lights
DESCRIPTION:Bellevue Botanical Garden's holiday display shapes its lights into the garden itself: glowing flowers\, plants and small critters tucked into the beds along the paths\, with a scavenger-hunt map for kids who want to find them all. Entry is by half-hour timed ticket\, starting at 4:30 p.m. The first two weeks have $5 Monday-through-Thursday nights\, and Dec. 8 is a sensory-friendly night with no live music and half the usual crowd. The garden lot is small and costs $5\, so many visitors park free at Wilburton Hill Park\, a quarter mile east.

SUMMARY:Santa's Sock Hop at Imagine Children's Museum
DESCRIPTION:Everett's three-story children's museum throws a pajama party to welcome Santa for the season. Kids come in their comfiest PJs for holiday crafts in the Art Hangout\, dancing\, photos with Santa and the museum's annual Christmas tree lighting up on the third floor. The museum's indoor sock-skating rink is back for the winter too. A limited VIP upgrade adds cookie decorating\, snowman clay creations and a top-secret Elf Squad mission. Tickets are sold online and at the door\, and it's a sweet low-key alternative to a crowded mall Santa line.

SUMMARY:Seattle Marathon and Half Marathon
DESCRIPTION:The Sunday after Thanksgiving belongs to Seattle's hometown marathon\, now the UW Medicine Seattle Marathon and Half Marathon. Thousands of runners and walkers work off the holiday meal on a course through downtown and along the water\, with a finish on the waterfront. Even if you aren't registered\, it's a fun morning to stand on a corner with a coffee and a cowbell. The Kids Marathon runs the day before\, on Saturday\, Nov. 28\, for younger runners who've been logging miles all fall. Expect street closures downtown both mornings.

SUMMARY:Ballard Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Seattle's first year-round neighborhood farmers market has filled the cobblestone stretch of Ballard Avenue NW every Sunday since 2000\, and the produce comes only from Washington farms. In winter the stalls lean toward storage crops\, meat\, eggs and baked goods\, with makers' tables mixed in\, and the market runs from NW Market Street down to 20th Avenue NW. Street meters are free on Sundays\, and the online vendor map is refreshed every Friday by 5 p.m. if you're after a particular farm. Rain doesn't cancel it\, so bring a hood and make a slow morning of the avenue's cafes afterward.

SUMMARY:West Seattle Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:In the heart of the Junction at California and Alaska\, West Seattle's market runs every Sunday morning through the winter\, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Think of it as a neighborhood shop more than a destination: farm produce\, meat\, eggs and bread\, with the Junction's coffee shops and bookstores a few steps away. Nov. 8 is Applelooza\, a tasting of Washington-grown apples that's a good excuse to learn a few new varieties. SNAP users can pay with an EBT card directly at select farm stands here\, and the C Line stops right at the corner.

SUMMARY:Fremont Sunday Market
DESCRIPTION:Fremont's European-style street market has run for more than 35 years\, and it doesn't take the winter off. From November on it moves under cover at the Fremont Bridge location\, which is heated\, with a second covered spot on 34th next to the market's own Sundays Coffee. Expect a mix of vintage and flea finds\, local artisans and a curbside row of food trucks that makes it a decent brunch plan. Ballard's farmers market is a two-minute drive west if you want to make a morning of both.

SUMMARY:Capitol Hill Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:The Denny Way entrance to Capitol Hill Station opens straight onto this market\, which sets up on E Barbara Bailey Way between Broadway and 10th every Sunday of the year. Winter hours stay at 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.\, a late enough start for brunch first. Expect Washington farm produce\, meat and baked goods\, and on Nov. 15 the market hosts Applelooza\, a tasting of the wide range of apples grown around the state.

SUMMARY:Free Thursday Nights at Tacoma Art Museum
DESCRIPTION:Tacoma Art Museum stays open until 8 p.m. on Thursdays\, and admission is free from 5 o'clock on.

SUMMARY:The Lights of Christmas at Warm Beach Camp
DESCRIPTION:For its 30th season\, the Northwest's big Christmas light festival at Warm Beach Camp\, north of Marysville near Stanwood\, becomes mainly a walking event. Guests stroll at their own pace past more than a million lights\, with a Christmas market\, food\, costumed characters\, mini-golf\, a light maze and train rides along the way. It runs on select nights only\, and every ticket must be bought online ahead with limited entries per hour. Three Thursdays are kept as drive-thru nights for anyone who'd rather stay warm in the car\, though those skip the activity stops.

SUMMARY:Santa Trains at the Northwest Railway Museum
DESCRIPTION:The Northwest Railway Museum has run Santa trains through the Snoqualmie Valley every year since 1969. Families pick between two rides. The 40-minute Yuletide Express leaves the Snoqualmie Depot\, climbs past Snoqualmie Falls\, and Santa visits every family on board.

Every child gets a gift\, and tickets go fast.

SUMMARY:Edmonds Museum Holiday Market
DESCRIPTION:The Edmonds Historical Museum's street market moves into holiday mode on six Saturdays in November and December\, filling 5th Avenue North and Bell Street just outside the old Carnegie library building that houses the museum. Farmers\, bakers and specialty food producers set up next to artisans selling handcrafted gifts and artwork\, and holiday greenery is a big draw. There's music\, and the shops of downtown Edmonds are steps away\, so it's an easy morning to combine with lunch near the ferry dock. Note there's no market on Thanksgiving weekend.

DESCRIPTION:Tacoma's only year-round farmers market sets up every Saturday in the Proctor District through Dec. 19. Shoppers come from across the city for local vegetables and flowers\, meat and seafood\, artisan foods\, beer and cider\, and prepared food\, usually with a local musician playing and plenty of dogs to watch. The surrounding blocks are full of independent shops\, coffee and restaurants\, which makes it a natural start to a North End Saturday. SNAP shoppers can double their dollars with Market Match at the info booth.

SUMMARY:Lake City Farmers Market (Fall Saturdays)
DESCRIPTION:Lake City's market switches from summer Thursday evenings to Saturday mornings in the fall\, and it keeps going until Dec. 19\, which makes it one of the few seasonal markets in North Seattle still open for holiday cooking. Look for it at NE 125th Street and 28th Avenue NE from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The scale is small and easygoing\, the kind of market where farmers have time to chat. SNAP users can pay with an EBT card directly at select farm stands and get up to $50 a month back on fruit and vegetables.
