Meet us at SalmonFest in Ninilchik, AK from August 5th-7th, 2022!

Salmon is known generally as the iconic species of Alaska, and while protecting Bristol Bay has been SalmonFest’s primary focus over the years, they also support many causes year round. Since 2015, SalmonFest has donated over $150,000 to salmon and related initiatives. One of SalmonFest’s best features is the Salmon Causeway (where you’ll find AWA!), which allows guests to learn, engage and take action on any of the many issues facing Alaska and the world at large. Moreover, SalmonFest strives to be a Zero Waste event where all discarded materials are designed to become resources for others to use. SalmonFest also uses steel pints in their beer tents, and they utilize locally sourced goods and services whenever possible.

For a full lineup of the bands attending SalmonFest, check our their website.

Event hours:

• Friday, 8/5: noon to 3am (AWA will be tabling from noon to 7pm)

• Saturday, 8/6: 11am to 3am (AWA will be tabling from 11am to 7pm)
