Downtown Olympia’s Third Thursdays are a community celebration of local culture, art, food, music and unique shopping experiences. Whether you make it a date night, a fun outing with friends or a family adventure, there is so much to discover in our vibrant community, all set to live music from street performers.

Enjoy the Twinklefest, downtown Olympia’s storefront decorating contest, throughout the holiday season by visiting downtown shops.

Every Third Thursday the streets of downtown Olympia come alive. Downtown businesses present unique in-store promotions, sales, book signings, artists, music and more. See who is participating at OlyThirdThursday.com and what time their in-store specials occur. Some are all day and others are in the evening. Mark your calendar for the next Third Thursday, December 20!  Businesses, sign up here.
