Urban Craft Uprising’s Premier Northwest Food Show

Gobble Up SLU

10AM – 5pm | FREE to attend!

COME DISCOVER THE BEST CRAFT FOOD MAKERS IN THE PNW AT URBAN CRAFT UPRISING’S PREMIER NORTHWEST FOOD show

We are so thrilled to be hosting our annual summer Gobble Up event at Lake Union Park again this year! Since its beginnings in 2017, Gobble Up has grown to be one of our most beloved festivals of the year, as it provides all of our fabulous small batch food producers the chance to get their delicious products into your hands (and bellies)! The summer version of this show will be taking place at Lake Union Park, where you’ll be able to enjoy the summer weather, an amazing view of the lake, and the chance to shop with 75+ of our fantastic foodie small businesses and food trucks, under the sun! YES PLEASE!

If you have been to our fall Gobble Up event, you may have noticed (or been involved in) all the activity at the Raffle Table. It’s because we have AMAZING door prizes that are donated by some of our favorite foodie establishments in the area, and this year we’re bringing that perk to this June show as well! We are always so blown over by the support from our community, and are forever grateful to them. When you come to Gobble Up SLU, be sure to stop by the Info Booth to enter. It’s easy, free, and you can win some great prizes throughout the day from all of the amazing businesses you see below.

I just love the community vibe of this event! All the vendors are so friendly and wonderful, and it’s such a great way to support them and connect with them directly.

– Jesi S., Lynnwood, WA

I use UCU as a way to build holiday gift baskets for friends and family. Y’all are the best place to shop and I love coming back year after year.

– Sascha A., Portland, OR

You do a great job of curating amazing events, advertising and bringing the crowds. I always appreciate this.

– Sarah V., Beaverton, OR

Just wanted to say this was such a wonderful event! I loved connecting with all the local and small vendors, hearing their stories and seeing their products. I also did manage to get some fantastic holiday gifts and gift ideas, which this is the only event ever advertising good gift selections that afterwards, I actually agreed and was very happy with the offerings. The venue was a great space and not too crowded, despite how many people were in attendance. Maybe some directional signs on the floor to keep flow of traffic moving, but other than that, this event was fantastic and I’ll be attending in the future.

– Kelly M., Portland, OR

I always find great gifts for others and treats for myself at this show!

Patty K., Beaverton, OR

Thanks for organizing this fun event. Loved learning about & sampling new and interesting products especially locally made. We bought a mushroom growing kit & am excited to try growing mushrooms at home for the first time.

about

Gobble Up

Gobble Up is produced by Urban Craft Uprising, Seattle’s Largest Indie Craft Show. We specialize in organizing handmade craft and food markets all around the PNW, with our biggest annual Winter Show having just celebrated its 20th year in December 2024! We also offer many networking and business-building events for small business owners. It is exciting that so many people have made craft food their full-time business, and Gobble Up aims to connect these makers with everyday consumers, as well as restaurant owners and chefs. By dedicating an entire show just to these special crafty folks instead of just a single category of our larger craft shows, we can get so many more of their products in front of the food lovers who want to find them!
