Our Purpose

We believe that water is a great conductor of connection.

Lake Union Concerts exists to connect people to music, nature, and one another.
Come join us for a show (or eight)!

Seattle Paddle Rave

What started as a casual grass roots hang out quickly became an institution on Lake Union. As one of the largest floating concerts in the US, Seattle Paddle Rave brings together over 1,000 paddle boarders to celebrate the vibrant EDM scene here in Seattle. Known for it’s inclusive community, high-energy music, and Seattle’s iconic skylines and sunsets, we’re buildling on a rich legacy of music in the city.

We like to say, “If it floats, it’s invited!”. Grab your paddle board, kayak, tube, or boat and come dance with us!

We’re proud to be one of the only free concerts in Seattle, helping create a culture of accessibility and are grateful for our partners who help enable it.

Dock Rock (New!)

This year we’re excited to introduce a new series called “Dock Rock”. This series also features a floating concert, but this time played off of a floating home!

Seattle’s floating homes are a one of a kind community, an iconic part of Lake Union. Our concert series brings them to life in a new way, highlighting local rock and indie style musicians.

Come jam with us!
