La Conner Daffodil Festival 2017

/
UPDATE: PHOTO CONTEST EXTENDED TO APRIL 17th! You all have heard about the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival right? While the tulips are our most famous blooms, there’s nothing quite as wonderful as entire fields of bright, cheery daffodils against our Mt. Baker backdrop. It’s just so beautiful in March with the Daffodils blooming and there are so many fun events and exhibits in La Conner during March. If you can’t make it to Skagit Valley Tulip Festival in April, skip the crowds and join us in March this year for the La Conner Daffodil Festival 2017!

John Wayne's First Yacht Now in La Conner - Norwester Museum Tour

/
John Wayne returns to the Pacific Northwest! The Norwester, John Wayne’s first yacht, is a piece of our own history officially anchored as of July 9, 2016 in beautiful La Conner, Washington. The 76-foot yacht has been renovated and restored as a museum, showcasing items owned by “the Duke” as well an assortment of antiques and actual props used in his movies. Visit the Norwester and experience a “live” time capsule of Washington’s shared history with the legendary actor and producer John Wayne. “Tomorrow hopes we have learned something from yesterday.”

Skagit Valley Tulip Festival 2016

/
La Conner is ready for your Skagit Valley Tulip Festival 2016 visit! Not only because all sorts of tulip festival events, art exhibits and happenings are going on, but also because in March we celebrate the La Conner Daffodil Festival. Because of our warmer than normal winter, the Daffodils started blooming early, and we are expecting the tulips to be at their peak during the Daffodil Festival and into the first two weeks of April!
