The 2023 Bigfoot Festival: June 17 & 18, 2023

In the dense forests of northern Washington, scientists, experts, and fans of the legendary creature Bigfoot will gather for the 2023 Bigfoot Festival in Metaline Falls, Washington. The best thing about this Bigfoot Festival besides being held in actual Bigfoot country is that almost all the events are free! The weekend kicks off at 8 am with the Annual Bigfoot 5k Run and a great way to see the area on foot and get some exercise. The rest of the weekend is filled with expert speakers, arts and crafts, a pancake breakfast, and the Bigfoot Presenters Dinner.

Where is Metaline Falls, Washington?

If you look at the northeast corner of Washington State near the Canadian border, that is roughly where Metaline Falls is located. It is about a 2-hour drive north of Spokane, Washington. Take US Rt-2 north from Spokane for about 45 minutes until you take a left onto WA-211. Follow WA-211 for another 15 minutes until you reach WA-20 north and follow WA-20 north for another hour to reach Metaline Falls, Washington. Because it is such a small town, you will need to arrange sleeping arrangements ahead of time, and the Bigfoot Festival has a great list of options to stay on its website that you can find easily. You can find out everything else you need to know on the official Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival website.
