The Seattle Sauna Festival is the Pacific Northwest’s first large-scale gathering dedicated to the art of sauna, wellness, and community connection.

This two-day celebration invites guests to step into the steam and experience the magic of sauna culture through sauna sessions, cold plunges, live music, and Nordic-inspired food and drinks.

Whether you’re brand-new to the tradition or a seasoned sauna lover, this festival is your invitation to relax, renew, and celebrate sauna culture—Seattle style.

WHAT TO EXPECT

SAUNA CITY

A gathering of unique saunas from across the region. Try them all—each with its own design, heat style, and personality, perfect for warming up on a crisp Northwest day.

LIVE MUSIC

Acoustic sets, DJ beats, and cultural performances create a vibrant atmosphere, even when the mist rolls in or the rain taps on the sauna roof.

COLD PLUNGE

Cool down the traditional way with invigorating ice baths and enjoy the rain or pray for snow.

NORDIC FLAVORS

Fuel your day with hearty soups, fresh baked goods, smoked fish, and craft beverages—comfort food made for cozy weather.

HOW DOES THIS WORK?

Purchase a ticket for a timed session.  This includes access to the saunas, cold plunges, and gathering spaces.

Arrive at the National Nordic Museum freshly showered with a bathing suit and towel for inside the saunas, a robe and flip-flops/easily removed shoes to wear outside of the saunas, and a water bottle to stay hydrated.  We recommend coming already dressed to maximize sauna time, but we will have dressing rooms and small lockers available (just bring your own lock).

Enjoy the saunas, cold-plunge, hang out around the campfires, and try the delicious offerings at Freya. 

Repeat as you like.

Depart feeling refreshed and relaxed.
