Events

In 2024, Kirkland once again welcomes back its cherished events! These events hold a special place in the hearts of many, drawing guests from both near and far to enjoy our picturesque shorelines, savor the delights of our acclaimed restaurants, and revel in the ambiance of our lakeside parks. Some events, initially introduced in 2020 as a bold response to challenges, have returned in 2024 as symbols of optimism and resilience. Among them is the Summer Concert Series, Kirkland Wine Walks, and Kirkland Winter Market, held at Kirkland Urban in November and December. This market offers a unique shopping experience, with a plethora of one-of-a-kind treasures to satisfy everyone on your gift list.
