Beyond the fish and flowers, Pike Place Market is a village of farmers, artists, residents and neighbors. With senior housing above the Market’s storefronts and a network of social services woven throughout the historic district, the Pike Place Market Foundation welcomes and supports a diverse community in the heart of downtown Seattle.

Rooted in our model for a healthy community, the Market Foundation improves the health and well-being of our neighbors by promoting and increasing access to education, nutritious food, community support, economic stability and a safe neighborhood.


This year the Pike Place Market Foundation is proud to celebrate 40 years of investment and impact in the Market community. We will honor this milestone by engaging with the public, supporters, volunteers and the Market community to bring the Pigs on Parade back to the Market for a dazzling display of creativity, community and piggy banks!

 

Bumble Pig, Pork n’ Beans and Ball Hog are just three of the dozens of fiberglass pigs from the 2001 and 2007 “Pigs on Parade” who are touching up their artistic coats and polishing their hooves for a celebratory return back home to Pike Place Market. 

Join the Pike Place Market Foundation on Saturday, October 29th from 11 am – 4 pm for Harvest Festival at Pike Place Market and take a trip down the cobblestones for a dazzling display of creativity, community and piggy banks! “Pigs on Parade” returns to Pike Place Market to celebrate the Market Foundation’s impact of $40 million in 40 years invested into the Market community. 

Pig fans far and wide will have a chance to vote in a Pig Pageant to cheer for their favorite pig and support the Pike Place Market Foundation.
