Best events in

Custer

While it might seem quiet, there's no shortage of events and things to do in Custer, WA and the surrounding Whatcom County. Much of the region's activity centers on the community hubs of nearby Bellingham, Ferndale, and Lynden. Local culture is rooted in a strong appreciation for craft beverages, agriculture, and the arts, which shapes the character of gatherings large and small.

• The local rhythm often begins with a trip to a farmers market in Bellingham or Lynden before shifting to evening live music at breweries or dedicated venues.
• Bellingham serves as the area's cultural hub, with major performances at the historic Mount Baker Theatre and more contemporary shows at The Wild Buffalo House of Music.
• For a more relaxed, small-town feel, Lynden's Front Street offers the Jansen Art Center and is home to annual celebrations like the Northwest Raspberry Festival.
