Seattle's French Fest 13th edition - a better Climate

A Celebration of French-Speaking Cultures organized by France Education Northwest (FEN), this year honoring the theme of "a better Climate"

Seattle’s French Fest celebrates the diversity of traditions, ideas, dialects, and more, that comprises French-speaking cultures around the world. While France is often the most well-known French-speaking country for people in the U.S., there are many other countries and places all around the world where French is spoken. French and several similar dialects are even spoken by groups in the U.S., particularly in Louisiana.

Every year, the festival gathers over 4000 people and aims to embrace the diversity of French-speaking cultures in the types of activities offered at the event. It promotes the French idea of “joie de vivre” through music, dancing, cooking demonstrations, film screenings, wine tastings, baguette tasting contest, and more. 

In 2025, Seattle's French Fest will honor the theme of "a better Climate" through activities centered around:

• Sustainability ;
• Protecting Nature ;
• Enabling innovations to address Climate Change ;
• Driving innovation to reduce the carbon footprint ;
• Enable recycling at scale ;
• Create a better social environment while we face increasing scarcity of ressources;
