Party Like It’s 1995: Boundary Bay Brewery’s 30th Anniversary Party

Sep 10

We’re celebrating 30 years of Boundary Bay Brewery with a party on Saturday, September 20th! Join us for an all-day celebration including craft brews, delicious food, live music, and more! Every band playing has graced our stage many times, and have helped make Boundary what it is!
The celebrations will be spread out across the brewery, beer garden, the alleyway and out front on Railroad Ave!

Entertainment Schedule

11 am - 7 pm: We’re kicking off our 30th Anniversary party with a nod to our beloved St. Patrick’s Day celebrations, including live music from The House Wrens and Irish dancers!

11:15 am: Welcome from Robert Sarazin Blake & Proclamation, presented by The City of Bellingham, Bellingham Regional Chamber of Commerce, Bellingham Downtown Partnership, and Bellingham Beer Alliance.

1 pm: Playing straight from the songbook of The Pogues, Bottle of Smoke celebrates the wild life of the late and great Shane MacGowan. Sing along, dance a jig, and raise a pint. Bottle of Smok features Gabe Taylor of Daikaiju on vocals.

3 pm: The amazing Baby Cakes will be kicking things off at our Main Stage at 3 pm! Baby Cakes is a 9-piece powerhouse of elite musicians that takes their audiences on a luxurious joyride through the golden age of American Soul, funk, and R&B. They’ve won numerous local awards, have been touring for 11 years, and are so fun to see!

5 pm: Fish Fry fans know the sound of the Sleepy Alligators well! A local favorite, the Sleepy Alligators, featuring Bert Edkins, Jose Jimenez, Orion Lackey, Tim Maloy, Howard Muhlberg, and John Wilson, play the music of the Grateful Dead. Don’t miss out on one last show at the brewery!

**8 pm:** The Bellingham-based, and greatly loved, **Hot Damn Scandal,** will take the beer garden stage at 8 pm!
Hot Damn Scandal, featuring Boundary employee Mickey Stylin on bass, finds its songs under park benches and in forgotten alleyways. The resulting outlaw ballads, dirty jazz, circus freakouts, ragtime sea-shanties, string band funk, lonesome heart-breakers, and whiskey bottle love songs blend together in a sweet song syrup somewhere between a ramble and a roar.

Food

There’ll be no shortage of amazing local food options to enjoy at our anniversary party:

Boundary Bay Fish Fry
Dougs Burgers
That’s What I Like Island Grill
JGlizzys
Cicchitties
Lil Mambo

Food trucks will be on Railroad Ave and in Cedar Dust alley on the other side of the beer garden.

Other Fun Shenanigans

We’ll also have caricature artists, craft stations, and more at the party!

We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, September 20th!

*Boundary employees from past & present are invited to join us at Camp Boundary in the Mountain Room, starting at 1 pm!
