WHO WE ARE

The Lynnwood Public Facilities District (“The District”) is an independent state agency created in 1999 to provide community and economic benefits for the City of Lynnwood and Snohomish County.  The District owns the Lynnwood Event Center and associated 13 acres with a 1960s-era retail plaza.

We are pleased to announce that The District is growing our investments in Lynnwood through the expansion of the small Event Center and transformation of the old strip mall into a walkable, arts, culture and entertainment District that serves as the heart of Lynnwood’s City Center.

As plans for this transformation continue, both the Event Center and surrounding retail spaces remain active with programs that engage and connect the community. Visitors can explore our rotating art exhibits featuring local and regional artists and enjoy signature community events such as the Lynnwood Luau and Jingle Bell Breakfast, which bring people together in celebration and connection.

We are excited to be growing with Lynnwood and developing a live, work and play destination unlike any other in our region.  Stay tuned!
