• May: Last Monday
• July: July 4*
• September: 1st Monday

*If the date falls on a Sunday, the Monday that follows is a free parking day.

Time-limits are also not enforced on Sundays and holidays, unless specifically stated.

Now as to what is open on these days - you're on your own - but here's an entire webpage devoted to parking in Seattle.

And when you are parking on other days, here's a page with the rates and parking zones.
