DubSea Fish Sticks Home Opener
June 6
This summer, you should go to a DubSea Fish Sticks game. Get your ass out to White Center to Mel Olson Stadium inside King County’s Steve Cox Memorial Park and watch the Fish Sticks, a team of collegiate ballplayers staying in shape in their off-season. For the purposes of the Fish Sticks, the stadium is dubbed “The Fryer.” These games are full of kitsch and whimsy. Instead of the first pitch, there’s a first fish (yes, someone throws a fish). In between innings, the Fish Sticks put on weird activities like inflatable mascot races, sing-alongs, and something called “Fish Sticks on the Face.” You better believe team mascot Fin Crispy Jr. is heavily involved. It’s a good, goofy time. And it’s cheap. Tickets cost $14. On certain Thursdays, all concessions are $3. Yes, even the fish sticks. Who needs the Savannah Bananas when we’ve got the DubSea Fish Sticks? Catch them in the Fryer June through the first week of August. (Steve Cox Memorial Park, 6:35 pm, all ages) NATHALIE GRAHAM

Fremont Fair 2026
June 20–21
NAKED PEOPLE ON BIKES! But the annual Fremont Fair is so much more: body painting on naked people on bikes, giant puppets, stilt-walkers, dancers, floats, and musicians all coming together to observe the longest day of the year in our hemisphere. A lot has changed in Seattle over the past 35 years, but the Solstice Parade remains a bastion for quirky, radical self-expression and community-forward, hippie-bacchanal vibes. When the parade concludes, the fair continues with a bevy of food trucks and cocktail and beer gardens, a huge art and craft market, a plant-based block party, live bands, a showcase of Seattle Art Cars, and one great big slide! Keep solstice weird! (Downtown Fremont, times vary, free, all ages) AMANDA MANITACH

Corgi World Championships
June 27-28
Welcome to the best weekend of your life, when dozens of corgis from all over the world (or, at least, the Pacific Northwest) run their adorable butts off on the Emerald Downs horse race track. Their legs are so short! The track is so muddy! Look at them go! As entertaining as the annual race is, the Corgi World Championships are not a novelty; they are a sport. They are aired on ESPN2! And we have two chances to watch them play out in person, with the qualifying races on Saturday, June 27, and the finals on June 28. Festivities begin with a parade of the corgis; it ends with dozens of fluffy buns dashing as fast as they can for 50 yards while the crowd goes wild. Who will win? Who will stop mid-race to try to shake off their bandana? The drama is almost too much to take.   (Emerald Downs, 11:30 am, all ages) MEGAN SELING
