Shopping, Dining, Culture and Wild Fun!!!

Sandpoint's dining and shopping are major attractions no matter the weather. Located in the heart of downtown Sandpoint is the internationally famous Coldwater Creek and dozens of other eclectic downtown shops. Visitors to Sandpoint will find anything they're looking for and unique items and gifts that they never knew existed. And history abounds in Sandpoint, as well: built in 1927, the historic Panida Theater was a vaudeville theater until recently acquired by a nonprofit group. The Panida Theater hosts performing arts and international movies, and attracts a wide variety of musical and performing acts.

Sandpoint is also known as a home for the arts and artists, hosting art galleries and local businesses sponsor ArtWalk, a 20-location tour of art. Sandpoint is also known for its cultural and musical sponsorship, and hosts The Festival at Sandpoint, an eight-night extravaganza of music at Sandpoint Memorial Field. Beneath the summer sky, with the stars as a backdrop, you can listen to many different styles of music as if the artists were performing in your own backyard. Bring your picnic basket, a blanket, and cooler and enjoy the intimate setting of  The Festival at Sandpoint. The Festival at Sandpoint is one of the Northwest foremost music festivals, featuring everything from classical music from the Spokane Symphony to mainstream acts such as The Pretenders, Bodeans, Ziggy Marley, Clint Black, Nickel Creek, Michael Franti, Sean Colvin, Jackie Greene, and many many more.  Relax on your blanket, near the water, with a bottle of wine, listen to the music, and watch the Osprey bring dinner home from the river.  This experience is unlike any other music festival!
