LAKE STEVENS – Get ready for an earlier-than-usual Summer splash. The Lake Stevens Aquafest returns for 2025, promising a weekend packed with family fun, carnival thrills, and community spirit.
Mark your calendars for Friday, July 11 through Sunday, July 13, 2025.
Since 1969, Aquafest has celebrated the heart and soul of Lake Stevens. What began as a small community gathering has grown into a regional annual tradition that brings together tens of thousands of residents and visitors.
This year's dates represent a shift from the festival's traditional last weekend in July timing. Officials shifted the dates to ensure they could provide the carnival experience that many have missed in recent years.
