PARKS
City of Bothell has 400 acres of parks, open space and trails. Our parks showcase the Sammamish River and the City's history, as well as provide an opportunity to get away from it all. Throughout our parks are a variety of rentable facilities – including two indoor meeting/event spaces, four picnic shelters, and three sportsfield complexes. COMMUNITY EVENTS
Our annual community events are wh

Parks & Recreation organizes a variety of events including the 4th of July Parade, Summer Nights in Bothell, and Safe Halloween. Thanks to our event sponsors, all of these events are offered for free! Parks & Recreation also issues permits for medium and large-scale special events hosted in the Bothell community. ARTS & CULTURE
In partnership with the Arts Commission, Parks & Recreation works to publicly demonstrate the importance of art, nurture and promote Bothell’s artist community, engage and respond to community needs, and develop a sustainable arts infrastructure. Bothell City Council adopted the Strategic Cultural Plan in 2020, and work continues on the implementation plan thanks to funding from 4Culture.
