Must Eat
Oysterfest Northwest Takes Over Lynden

Saturday (9/6, 12 to 4 p.m.) — Jaunt north to Bellewood Acres in Lynden for this year’s Oysterfest Northwest, a delish celebration brimming with briny bivalves and clams, U-pick apples and tribal dances.

Must Cheer
6 Ways to be the Ultimate 12th Fan

The first official Seahawks game kicked off yesterday. In honor of our Super Bowl champs, we’ve rounded up tons of ‘Hawks-related events and other ways to show your team spirit.

Must Puyallup
Do the Washington State Fair

(9/5 to 9/21, times vary) — Despite having been renamed the “Washington State Fair” last year, “The Puyallup” returns with retro concerts (Chicago, REO Speedwagon), rodeo wrangling and rides galore.

Must Walk
Get Outside for These Arty Festivals

(9/6 to 9/7, times vary) — You have a mere 24 hours to enjoy two of the area’s best ways to encounter art on foot: the Lo Fi Arts Festival and NEPO 5K: Don’t Run, the first spread across a charming farm in Arlington and the latter spanning a 5K urban route from the International District to Beacon Hill.

Must Shop
Pioneer Square is the new It Shopping Destination

Should you find yourself in Seattle’s oldest neighborhood this week and not at all interested in the ‘Hawks hullabaloo, you have more than enough retail therapy at close reach to keep you busy.
