The Freedom Fair and Air Show is set to kick off on July 4th with a complete schedule of activities. The event, now in its 40th year, is held along a two mile stretch of the Ruston Way waterfront in Tacoma, Washington.

If you’re into music, then the Freedom Fair and Air Show will not disappoint. The event consists of five stages with musicians playing everything from alternative to gospel with over 30 genres of music. Make sure to stop by Camp Patriot between 8:00 PM-10:00 PM to watch the ARMED FORCES ICON show, a vocal competition where 10 active military and military veterans will compete against each other in a singing competition complete with a panel of judges. Camp Patriot is located next to the Lobster Shop restaurant.

This year we are starting a place for pets. Our pet zone on the West end will be a great place to meet other pet owners and those in the pet industry.

If meeting members of the community, good food, and interesting wares sounds appealing, the Freedom Fair offers a significant number of vendor booths. Visit local non-profiteers that are supporting their cause or shop for beautiful locally crafted items. With over 50 food vendors offering a variety of cuisine, you’re sure to have some options when it comes to taking a lunch break as well.

For those that don’t want to fight the traffic or deal with parking, then opt to take the bus. This year the bus system will drop passengers at both ends of the Freedom Fair which is conducive to the new layout of the event with the center of the event now being the Les Davis Pier.
