Mother’s Day blooms at Pike Place Market Flower Festival

Celebrate Mother's Day in a special way

Looking for a colorful and memorable way to celebrate Mother’s Day weekend with your family? Head to Pike Place Market’s 17th Annual Flower Festival, Saturday, May 10 and Sunday, May 11, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. This beloved Seattle tradition celebrates spring, local farmers, and the mother figures in our lives.

Flowers straight from the farm

Over 35 King, Snohomish, and Whatcom county flower farmers will transform the Market’s iconic Arcade and cobblestone streets into a fragrant sea of color. You’ll find bouquets of tulips, daffodils, irises, and peonies ready for purchase.

Gift ideas, music, and deals

New this year, the Market offers a Mother’s Day PIKE BOX, a hand-curated gift box filled with local treasures: seasonal produce, fresh flowers, herbs, handmade body care, and more. Pre-order by May 2 and pick it up on May 7.

The Pike Place Market Flower Festival also includes live music from favorite Market buskers performing on the Farm Truck under the iconic Public Market Clock & Sign. Plus, spend $50 or more at any Market business and receive a free, limited-edition Flower Festival tote bag (while supplies last).

Busy market, where to park

Worried about parking? With over 800 parking spaces and easy access to the Market, it’s more convenient than ever for families. See here for more details about parking locations, hours, and pricing.
