As Seattle residents emerge from the long slumber of winter and a brisk spring, a wave of excitement begins to ripple through the city—almost palpable in its intensity. For dance music fans, that energy is amplified by the long-anticipated arrival of festival season. The countdown is over, and the rhythm of summer is about to begin.
Among Seattle’s many events, one stands out for its unique blend of top-tier talent and stunning local scenery—EXP Seattle 2025. Returning for its second annual edition, this year’s EXP Seattle will take place on Saturday, August 9. After a successful yet challenging inaugural event, ViViD Presents is aiming to elevate the experience even further. This year, EXP Seattle is taking over Pier 62 at the downtown Seattle waterfront.

Together, ViViD and Opulent will welcome up to 2,000 attendees to Pier 62. Jody Ramsammy, CEO of ViViD Presents, shared that EXP Seattle is all about shining a light on talented artists while showcasing the beauty Seattle has to offer.
