The New Waterfront Festival is a free, collaborative event made possible by City of Seattle entities, non-profit organizations, Waterfront businesses, and the independent community of Seattle. Intended to increase awareness and to gain consumer support for businesses during Seawall construction throughout the fall and winter of 2014/15, NWF is also a platform for all Seattle businesses to be seen and heard as a united force that can make a difference. Plus, there's a Great Wheel light show!
