Take your dad to a circus show!
Enjoy a night of circus, spectacle, and shenanigans! Vaudevillingham is a monthly community open stage that’s uncurated, uncensored, unapologetic, and UNBELIEVABLE! The best part is that you never know what might happen... Axe juggling? Aerial silks on roller skates? A mad-lib singalong? A symphony made purely from conch shell noises? 🌟 🎩
🌟 TWO SHOWS! 7pm - Family Friendly, All Ages. 9pm - (Almost) Anything Goes, Adult (ish) show. Doors open 30 minutes prior to show.
Spend the day with dad exploring Bellingham Bay and the San Juan Islands on a whale watching cruise with San Juan Cruises!
They also offer wine, beer, and crab dinner cruises.
Celebrate Father's Day Weekend at the Pickford!
Year-round hiking is plentiful in and around Bellingham. Combining the trails in the Mount Baker Snoqualmie National Forest, Chuckanut Mountains, North Cascades National Park, and Whatcom County, you and Dad have hundreds of miles of trails to explore.
Just remember to recreate responsibly!
