"This Has to Stop": The Swinomish Mission to Treat Addiction

November 4, 2025 2:23 pm

What started in 2004 as a humble alleyway concert series with just 500 people per night has grown into a five-block community celebration with more than 5,500 attendees on five summer Wednesday evenings. Downtown Sounds is more than a free community music festival — it's the drumbeat and rhythm of downtown Bellingham. Hear from city leaders and the Downtown Bellingham Partnership on what makes Downtown Sounds such a vital part of our community and how the commitment to free family fun propels us forward. Learn more about Downtown Sounds at downtownbellingham.com/downtownsounds. The city's Standard Tourism Grant supported a portion of expenses for Downtown Sounds in 2024 and 2025. Learn more about tourism grants at cob.org/services/business/tourism-program.
