Northwest Tune-up

Friday, July 11, 2025 - Sunday, July 13, 2025

Bellingham, WA

A community-forward festival in Bellingham, Washington, fueled by mountain biking, music, art and craft beer. Inspired by elements from the world’s best festivals, immerse yourself in Pacific Northwest culture and experience a vibrant weekend that nurtures community enrichment and connection.

Bikes & Racing

Bellingham is globally known for its rich, loamy soil and lush forest riding and 100+ miles of nearby trails, making it one of the best places in North America to shred singletrack. With free bike demos from top brands, guided clinics, kids events, spectator-friendly exhibitions and competitions that span enduro, dirt jump and pumptrack categories, all levels and ages of cyclists will find two-wheeled thrills throughout the weekend.

Music & Entertainment

Steeped in musical legacy, the Northwest breeds talent and attracts global artists to this corner of the world. Enjoy a star-studded lineup of musicians all weekend from the waterfront stage, covering a range of diverse genres, including bluegrass, synthwave, bubblegrunge and more.

Beer & Cider

Bellingham’s vibrant bike community goes hand-in-hand with its distinct beer culture, home to 19 (and counting) craft breweries in Whatcom County and ranking in the top 20 nationwide in breweries per capita. With over two dozen beers, ciders and kombuchas on tap, it’s easy to find your new favorite flavor.
