Episode Synopsis
Good morning, this is your Bellingham Local Frequency for Saturday, September 27, 2025.It’s shaping up to be an exciting autumn weekend here in Bellingham. The big headline for today is the launch of the Ninth Annual Bellingham SeaFeast down at Squalicum Harbor, running both today and tomorrow. This free waterfront festival brings the community together to celebrate our region’s maritime heritage and the commercial fishing industry that’s woven into daily life. Expect breathtaking harbor views, live music, and a beer and cider garden packed with local flavors. If you’re a fan of fresh seafood, you’re in for a treat: local vendors will be serving up dockside catches, and the Lummi Nation Firepit Salmon embodies tradition over open fire you won’t want to miss. Add in boat rides, art booths, and hands-on fishing experiences for kids and adults, and you’ve got two full days of Northwest magic.Those looking for a more classic local Saturday can head to Depot Market Square for the Bellingham Farmers Market, active from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Expect crisp apples, pumpkins, and fall veggies alongside handcrafted goods from makers across Whatcom County. If you’re into arts, the Whatcom Museum’s FIG Artist Corner is open, offering family art workshops and exhibitions from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.Tonight, Bellingham gets a bit spooky with the Fairhaven Ghost Tour starting at Sycamore Square. Led by local storytellers, this tour explores the city’s mysterious history and promises some hair-raising tales perfect for the season.Music lovers can check out live sets at venues like The Upfront Theatre and Bar Two Eleven, or swing by Aslan Brewing Co.’s Black Noise Record Fair for rare vinyl and local DJ sets. Don’t forget a jazz brunch at Hotel Leo, running early from 8 a.m. till 2 p.m., or join a sunset silent disco at Zuanich Point Park as dusk rolls in.For those seeking outdoor adventure, the North Cascades Carnivores Field Class is inviting nature lovers out to Diablo Dam Road for a hands-on learning hike focused on our region's wildlife and ecosystems.Turning to news, DNA analysis has confirmed the passing of Travis Decker, the suspect at the center of a triple-murder investigation, bringing resolution to a months-long search.
