THINGS TO DO IN EVERETT, WASHINGTON

BILLY ELLIOT

Village Theatre's production of Billy Elliot is fan(freakin')tastic. It's only playing for a few weeks and you must see it! Get tickets here.

SETS IN THE WEST
TUESDAY AT THE WETMORE THEATRE PLAZA

Sets in the West kicked off last Tuesday and it was hopping! The bands were great, the sound was on point and the tacos and drinks were delicious. Head down after work – food and drinks start at 5 PM. Music starts at 7 PM. On the stage this week are Stubborn Son from Seattle and Everett band TELLERS. More info here.

MUSIC ON THE PLAZA

FREE KID'S CONCERTS
THURSDAY AT T.A. SULLIVAN PARK

Hey parents, catch the FREE outdoor children's concert on Thursday mornings at T.A. Sullivan Park in Silver Lake. This week, Recess Monkey plays and it's going to be bananas.  A little advice – arrive early for a parking spot. Check out the 2016 schedule here.

MUSIC AT THE MARINA

Shake yo' thang at Music at the Marina (Everett's dockside dance floor) every Thursday and Saturday this Summer.

Reserve a table at Lombardi's here.

STOKED FOR THIS! Catch FREE outdoor movies at Boxcar Park all summer long. The movie starts at 9:30 PM (this week it's The Sandlot), but things get hopping at 7 PM with loads of family-friendly goodness. We went last Friday and had a great time! Check out the whole schedule here.

ANNIE (KIDS) – FREE VILLAGE THEATRE KIDSTAGE PERFORMANCE
FRIDAYS AT THE WETMORE THEATRE PLAZA

The Village Theatre Kidstage performs some of the most famous tunes from Annie on Fridays at noon in the Village Theatre Plaza. These free shows are wondertful and the kids will blow your mind with how good they are. Seriously. More info here.

SUMMER NIGHTS ON THE STRATO-DECK
FRIDAY NIGHT AT THE FUTURE OF FLIGHT

Into airplanes, live music and awesome food & drink? There's a pretty sweet happy hour on Friday evenings at the Future of Flight – right alongside the flight line. Watch takeoffs and landings whilst sipping drinks, eating and mingling with peeps. Details/tickets here.

EAT + DRINK

We just learned that Mazatlan has a Sunday brunch buffet every week and we're kind of obsessed with it. If you're thinking that brunch at family Mexican restaurant sounds weird, then you're weird. It's really, really excellent. The food is fresh tasty, the spread is vast and at around $13 for all-you-can-eat it's a great deal.

Next time you're feeling a cocktail, go to Bluewater Distilling and order the Bartender's Choice. We just did this and what we got was mind-blowingly good. The bartender crafted some kind of take on a whiskey sour with Two Bar bourbon, egg whites and some kind of IPA reduction that was garnished with a sprig of charred thyme (that he charred with a blowtorch behind the bar). The show alone was worth the $12. 👏

ON THE BLOG

We interviewed the makers of the Everett Makers Market. Check it out here. BTW, they'll be joining us at the Everett Food Truck Festival on August 27th. Stay tuned for big news on that!

Check out our latest Hashtag Everett WA featuring people of Everett. It's our favorite one yet.
