Nowruz 2018 in Seattle

A Celebration of Nowruz (Persian New Year) at Seattle City Hall, open to the public and FREE! Please join us for the second year as we showcase the best of what brings us together around the globe, where over 300M people observe this 3000-year-old celebration of Spring Equinox. We had well over 1000 people come through last year and are hoping for a similar, if not bigger, crowd this year. There will be entertainment, art exhibits, booths, speakers (from American visitors to Iran to elected officials from the City and State and other organizations), and a Photo Booth!
