City Services Expo & Job Fair @ Tacoma Dome

Nov 2 @ 10:00 am – 3:00 pm

The City of Tacoma, Tacoma Public Schools, and Korsmo Construction invite the local
media and the community to T-Town: City Services Expo & Job Fair at the Tacoma
Dome. This free, family-friendly event offers a unique opportunity for Tacoma
residents to interact with City departments, explore career opportunities, and engage
in hands-on activities. For the second year, T-Town will once again feature the Tacoma
Public Schools (TPS) and Korsmo Construction Trades & Hiring Fair.

The event introduces a new element, “Truck-Or-Treat,” a fun twist on a Touch-ATruck event, where attendees can enjoy trick-or-treating in the Tacoma Dome Arena. Family-friendly costumes are encouraged as participants explore vehicles from City departments, including Environmental Services Solid Waste, Tacoma Power, Tacoma Rail, Public Works, TV Tacoma, Tacoma Fire, and Tacoma Police, among others.

More than 2,000 students are expected to attend the Trades & Hiring Fair on Friday,
November 1. Attendees can “Try-A-Trade” which includes activities where students and
job seekers can test out various trades and interact with some heavy duty equipment
while exploring career pathways with more than 100 companies in industries like
maritime, transportation, logistics, and construction.
