I'm assuming that this means events unique to each city, so I'm going to rule out holidays, pride parades, and stuff like that.

Seattle has:
Bumbershoot
SeaFair
Hempfest
Northwest Folklife Festival
Penny Arcade Expo (gaming convention)
Seattle Int'l Film Festival (largest in North America)
Sakura-con (anime convention)
