The Old Growth Oldtime Festival is held at the Latvian Community Center near Northgate in North Seattle.

Come enjoy the fantastic dance floor, indoor and outdoor jamming spaces, and beautiful stage.

Public Transportation

The light rail station at Northgate is a fairly level walk that takes about 20 minutes. Or you can catch the #75 bus at the station, which will take you within a few blocks of the center.

It’s also pretty easy to find a route that works for you by using the King County Trip Planner.

Come to the bar inside the building for beer, cider, seltzer, and snacks, but for dinner visit the food trucks behind the venue.

Friday afternoon and evening we’ll have Pumpkin Thai Food Truck for your dining pleasure.

Saturday afternoon and evening it’ll be Mexican food from Taqueria Vela.

There are lots of great places to jam, both inside and out.

Outdoor spaces are under canopies decorated with festive lights and flower arrangements. Volunteers supply gas heaters for your comfort.

Inside there are several places for jams, some large, some small. One thing to keep in mind while jamming … kindly make sure you’re not competing with a concert or disrupting a workshop.

When you enter the Latvian Center keep going straight to get to the parking lots. The drive around the building is one way clockwise! There’s parking in the front, sides, and back of the building. Spaces in back and on the sides are not marked. Please park head-in perpendicular to the fence and be thoughtful so the maximum number of people can find parking spots. When you exit, please continue around the building in a clockwise direction.

Parking can be tight, so consider carpooling.

If the parking lot is full, there is plenty of parking in the immediate neighborhood.

Accessibility

The Latvian Center has disabled parking spots, a wheelchair ramp to the main level, and a separate external door with ground-level access to the lower level of the building. If you cannot use stairs and want access to the lower level, ask at the front desk for assistance.
