Each June, Anchorage Downtown Partnership, Ltd. hosts the annual Downtown Summer Solstice Festival. Usually falling on the weekend of the summer solstice, this festival is guaranteed fun for all ages! It’s FREE to attend and is a great opportunity to have some fun in the sun with family and friends.

Come and enjoy live music, food trucks and vendors, a basketball tournament, chalk art gallery, petting zoo, bouncy houses, hip hop dance performance, DJs, the Hero Games, and a couple beer gardens, all scattered throughout one big downtown party!
