Underwater Music Festival
Underwater Music Festival - 2013
Newly sponsored by the
Seattle Boat Show, UMF
is the largest watercraft
rendezvous & concert in
the Pacific NW; bringing
live music via tug & barge
to +/-10K music loving
boaters - held on
Puget Sound, near
Gig Harbor, WA.
Though the concert is
held on a Saturday (12-6pm),
many watercraft arrive to the greater South Sound, as early as Thursday/Friday. By Friday/Saturday, most head to the greater region of Gig Harbor, Fox Island & Carr Inlet to rendezvous 'off shore' Rosedale, WA - near Raft Island, Cutts Island & Kopachuck State Park. Bands lined up to entertain the amazing crowd this year include National Award Winning local artists, Perry Acker, winner of Ford’s Gimme the Gig 2011.

UMF FUNDRAISING & SPONSOR PROGRAMS:
Though UMF is an all volunteer event, it is NOT free. There are basic Costs to cover and a charity which they support each year.
To continue this fantastic 'annual' watercraft concert, and charity fundraiser, folks are asked to reach into their pockets - to help support the UMF & Charity. All donations & proceeds, after hard costs, go to the charity. UMF Basic Costs: Tug & Barge, Security Skidos, Honey Buckets, Equipment.
Our greater boating community, businesses, and other groups, support the UMF via Fundraisers and Sponsor Programs. Yacht clubs, watercraft owners, and other organizations, can organize UMF Auctions, Collection Parties, and other fun events.
