Schedule of Events for Maritime Gig Festival

The annual Maritime Gig Festival returns to Gig Harbor this weekend.

It's that time of the year again, Gig Harborites!

The annual Maritime Gig Festival is this weekend with dozens of family-favorite events like the Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast, Yo Ho Harbor Grand Parade and the blessing of the fleet.

There are also new events like Sunday Farmers Market and Wheels on the Water Car Show.

Make sure to bring your whole family and enjoy some tasty food and live entertainment (Gig Harbor's own The Shy Boys will be once again performing at Skansie Brothers Park on Saturday!) 
For more information, visit the Maritime Gig Festival website.

PARKING: Harborview Drive between Pioneer and Rosedale will be closed to traffic on the day of the festival. Parking will be limited close to the festival site so make sure to look for parking as you come down Pioneer Way.
