Fremont Events
Located a skip from downtown Seattle, the eclectic Fremont neighborhood lives by its unofficial motto “De Libertas Quirkas” – the Freedom to be Peculiar. Where else can you find a massive stone troll, Lenin statue and dismantled rocket, among many other oddities, nestled among a thriving neighborhood of business and pleasure.
In recent years, Fremont has solidly established its place as a go-to Seattle neighborhood and tourism destination. The downtown core if filled with everything from chic shopping boutiques, to night life hot spots, tourism attraction, independent shops, professional services and people watching galore. There is a little something for everyone in the “Center of the Universe,” long-known for its laid back style, but with a balanced blend of modern urban development.
Originally a separate city, Fremont was annexed to Seattle in 1891 but has continued to “march to its own beat” ever since. The local “Fremonsters” have long prided themselves on a laid-back, free-flowing attitude, which is never more apparent that during the famed Fremont Fair and Fremont Solstice Parade.
