Every year, the greater Gig Harbor community celebrates the return of the salmon to our local waters. The Chum Festival serves to remind us that the quality of the water, and the habitat it supports, connects us all. Join us for a fun afternoon of activities as we commit to new ways to improve and protect our waterways.

Kids, adults, and families will enjoy a variety of environmental booths, activities, and resources that will help protect our local waterways.

Highlights include:
– Guided estuary tours
– Pressed salmon art
– Chum burgers and snacks
– Face painting for kids
– Canoe, kayak, and paddleboard races
– Live local music
– Salmon-themed art displays
– Stewardship tips and workshops
