Although this particular event focuses on the LGBT side, our main focus is to also promote and celebrate Norwegian culture and the long standing tradition in Ballard - Seattle for 127 years.
In this ever changing city of ours, it is important to preserve the many cultural aspects of our neighbourhoods and also our unique ways that enrich our city. Just like the rainbow flag each colour comes together to create a beautiful rainbow.
