Besides knowledge on Olympia area events, one of my favorite joys of pulling together the weekend event calendar is looking at the diversity of things to do. We have events for families, foodies, grandparents, tourists, singles, weekend warriors… and everyone in between. Use our weekend event calendar to plan your activities and feel free to share anything that should be added. Enjoy!
