WE WILL BE LOCATED ON THE WEST SIDE OF FRONT STREET

JUST SOUTH OF LEVITATE GASTROPUB

(BETWEEN ALDER & DOGWOOD)

More about the history of the Salmon Days Festival

In 1970, the Issaquah Chamber of Commerce presented the first Salmon Days.

The event grew out of the desire to replace the once popular Labor Day celebration, as well as a need to celebrate one of Issaquah’s greatest treasures – the annual return of the salmon.

In the beginning, the festival attractions included the Kiwanis Salmon BBQ, salmon hatchery displays, an art show, children’s parade led by the late J.P. Patches, Little League football games at Veterans Memorial Field, fire crew competitions and more.

In 1980 the Salmon Days festival and Grande Parade underwent two major changes that have been credited with altering the course of the festival: Salmon Days became a Seafair-sanctioned event and a festival float was created again.

To aid the growth process, merchandise was introduced, the first paid festival director was hired and large ohfishal spawnsors came onboard in the 80’s.

In 1990, the festival introduced the Salmon Days Limited Print, a signed and numbered run of 450 prints featuring original artwork. The festival retired the collection at the end of 2003 and the majority of the past prints have sold out.

Today, Salmon Days is still presented by the Greater Issaquah Chamber of Commerce with the goal of providing a community celebration focused on honoring the miraculous return of the salmon, almost two tons each year.

This is a FREE event but have no fear, there will be lots of cool things to purchase! 

Since 1971, this festival has been an iconic event in the Town of Los Gatos.  That means that there have been over 50 YEARS of fun!  So, mark it on your calendars - Sept. 21-22, 2024, 10am - 6:30pm - and be prepared to shop, dance, eat, drink and be merry!


The Kiwanis Club of Los Gatos has been putting on this fantastic event since 1996 and ALL proceeds go right back into the community.  That means that the tradition of giving scholarships to local at-risk high schoolers, sponsoring leadership clubs at the local schools, and providing meaningful community service projects will continue.
