A part of the Seattle community since the early years of the last century, Fishermen's Terminal was Port of Seattle’s very first facility. Today it continues to be the vibrant home for the North Pacific fishing fleet—a place where the fishing industry and the businesses that work in partnership with it come together.
That tradition is alive and well in 2008, as Fishermen’s Terminal celebrates the 20th Anniversary of the Fishermen’s Fall Festival on September 20. This annual fun-filled family event celebrates the return of the fishing fleet as well as the commercial fishing industry and the men, women, and families who work in it. This thriving industry supports more than 11,000 jobs and generates more than $840 million in annual salaries and wages. We look forward to celebrating their continued success with you in September at Fishermen’s Terminal.
There are many ways you can get involved and learn more about Port operations. Port community events include annual community meetings, open houses, the Port 101 series and tours of Airport and Seaport facilities.
The Port Speakers Bureau offers speakers on a wide variety of topics, from aviation and seaport security to
transportation trends.
Sea-Air School for King County students conducts tours and classes on trade and Port operations. The Airport Academy teaches Aviation High School students about industry-related careers.
