The Olympia Harbor Days Festival, a free event offered every Labor Day Weekend since 1974, is full speed ahead for 2022 and showcases the vintage tugboats with a walk aboard show at the docks and races in the bay, tall ships, steamships, and other historic vessels of twentieth-century commerce on the Puget Sound.
On land, festival attendees enjoy great food, great music, great artisans, plus nautical and marine-themed attractions and hands-on activities, including Olympia’s tugboat heritage, tribal history, and the working waterfront with Port of Olympia tours.
On the water, maritime fans enjoy tours of historic tugboats and vessels, cruises on Budd Bay, and vintage tugboat races when they can be offered.
All in all, here are over 250 things to do and see.
