EVERETT, Wash. – The streets of downtown Everett will become a basketball playground this July 13 and 14 with the third annual Everett 3on3 Basketball Tournament.
The tournament is a joint effort between Eventuris, a special events company, and the City of Everett.
The event will feature 40 basketball courts and hundreds of basketball games. The courts will be set up in the middle of Colby Avenue between Pacific and Everett Avenues and along Wetmore Avenue between Hewitt and Everett Avenues.
“I’m so excited to welcome the fantastic Everett 3on3 basketball tournament back to Everett for yet another fun weekend where our downtown streets are transformed into basketball courts,” says Everett Mayor Cassie Franklin. “For the past two years, this tournament has drawn thousands to our downtown to participate in and watch the competitions as well as check out Everett’s many restaurants, bars, and unique shops – and I know this year will be bigger than ever. Special thanks to [Boeing and Amazon] for their support of this great community event and to Eventuris for being an exceptional advocate and partner.”
For the first time, the Salty Sea Days summer block party will occur during the same weekend, adjacent to the Everett 3on3 basketball courts.
“Salty Sea Days is a beloved community event for our city, and we’re thrilled to host it this year
in conjunction with the 3on3 tournament on such a fun and vibrant weekend in our community,” said Downtown Everett Association executive director, Liz Stenning.
