Leo’s Legacy Party @ Hotel Leo

Leo's Legacy Party @ Hotel Leo

Leo’s Legacy Party | Beer. Beats. Bites.
We’re throwing a block party in the Hotel Leo parking lot, and you’re invited. Join us for live music from Cardova, ice-cold beer from Aslan Brewing Co., local vendors, lawn games, and an unbeatable lineup of fresh summer bites from the culinary team at Hotel Leo.

On the menu: BBQ oysters, local spot prawn ceviche, and tacos hot off the grill—made to pair perfectly with a cold beer in hand.

At the center of it all is the debut of Leo’s Legacy Lager—a crisp, refreshing brew brought to life from a historic Bellingham recipe dating back to the early 1900s. Come raise a glass, grab a bite, and kick off summer with us.

June 14, 2025. 3PM- 6PM. Free Event.
