Liberty Bay Festival — Thank You for an Incredible Weekend
The Liberty Bay Festival has officially come to a close, and what a weekend it was. Our waterfront was filled with energy, music, history, and community spirit from the moment the festival opened to the final boat horn echoing across the bay.
This event would not have been possible without the many people who brought it to life. Thank you to our vendors, performers, vessel crews, volunteers, partners, and the wonderful public who came out to celebrate with us. Your enthusiasm and support are what make this festival such a special part of Poulsbo.
We’re excited to share that we’ll be leaving the Vendor Page up so you can continue discovering and supporting the incredible small businesses and makers who joined us this year. Their creativity and hard work added so much color and character to the festival.
A special thank‑you goes to our festival photographer, Bud, whose talent and eye for storytelling captured the heart of the weekend. His photos bring the festival to life all over again, and we’re grateful for the time, care, and artistry he put into documenting every moment.
We’ll continue adding photos to this page as they come in, so feel free to check back and relive the fun.
Thank you again for being part of the Liberty Bay Festival. This community makes the waterfront shine, and we can’t wait to celebrate with you again next year.
