The annual Hoodstock Music and Arts Festival in Union showcases local musicians and artists. The main stage concert takes place on Saturday, August 19 from 11:30 AM to 6 PM on the water. This unique aspect of the festival means that main stage attendees "float" to view the lead acts. Don't worry, there's music and arts displays onshore – and for those who don't have their own boat, cruises are available.

"The festival is more than just music," claims organizer, Kelly Kahout, "it’s a celebration of community, giving back, and preserving a natural treasure – Hood Canal."

The festival's tagline, "Creativity, Expression, and Community," embodies this spirit that aims to bring together the vast musical talent of the area and support local non-profits with a focus on arts education and environmental sustainability. For land-loving supporters, there is live music and artists at the Union City Market Saturday, August 19 and Sunday, August 20.

Festival organizers give back by funding youth environmental education at the Hood Canal Salmon Center. In addition, the festival has named the North Mason and Hood Canal School music programs as beneficiaries.

This year, Hoodstock has partnered with Great Bend Center for Musito host a youth music camp at the Salmon Center during the week of Hoodstock. The kids attending the camp perform on the Union City Market Music Stage Saturday, August 19, at 11:30 AM to kick off the festival's events. Throughout the weekend artists from the community will also showcase their talents and sell their work at the Union City Market, giving festival-goers a chance to support local artists.

Hoodstock brings together local musicians, artists and supporters in a celebration of music, art and education. If you’re looking for a fun, unique and community-oriented event to attend in August, this is a good one to plan on!
