Summerfest Essentials: What's Up in Kirkland

Summerfest continues through Sunday, Aug. 11.

Don't miss summerfest, Kirkland's weekend celebration of summer, which benefits the Lake Washington School District. We can't think of any better way to support kids than by having some family fun at the waterfront.

We asked organizers what some of the highlights are, and here are just a few of the fun things you can expect:

  • The "International" Moss Bay Cardboard Boat Regata--the inventor of the cardboard boat is coming down to judge the contest--is certain to be a kick in the boat at its premiere this year.
  • On Sunday, some familiar faces from Star Wars--or dress-alikes,anyway--will be at the festival for photos and fun.
Remember, I-405 through Bellevue is closed for repairs, so it's a great weekend to hang out in Kirkland.
