New outdoor Sauna Festival planned for Portland this February
Willamette Sauna Festivaali drawing hundreds to steamy riverside sauna weekend
PORTLAND, ORE — Tickets sales are open for the first-ever winter sauna village Feb. 14-15 at Milwaukie Bay Park. The 9-acre waterfront will host more than 12 unique mobile sauna cabins on land and water, craft beer garden, artisan coffee, live music and a steamy textile showcase.
In collaboration with pFriem Beer, Brew Dr., and SaunaGlo, the festival is joining the National Sauna Week celebration and drawing visitors from across the country and abroad.
“The excitement is building to sweat, soak and bust the winter blues,” said Michael Calcagno, the event organizer. “Portland’s dreary weather is a perfect invitation for us to gather, get outside and smile together as we steam, shiver, and savor the joy of connection.”
