Event venues in Seattle

SoDo · stadium

Home to the Seahawks and the Sounders, walking distance from Pioneer Square, so an unusually high share of its crowd arrives on foot or by light rail.

SoDo · stadium

The Mariners' ballpark, next door to Lumen Field. An 81 game home season means SoDo has a mid sized crowd far more often than it has a huge one.

Downtown · convention centre

Downtown's convention halls, whose crowds are daytime and multi day, so they move lunch and coffee far more than they move a dinner service.

Lower Queen Anne · arena

Home to the Kraken and the Storm, at Seattle Center rather than downtown, which sends its crowd into Lower Queen Anne rather than the business district.

SoDo · music hall

The flat floor room attached to Lumen Field, which lets SoDo run a concert and a fixture on the same evening.

Downtown · theatre

A 1928 room on Pine Street running touring Broadway, concerts and comedy, with an audience that reliably eats downtown before the curtain.

Downtown · theatre

The Seattle Symphony's home on Second Avenue. A seated, early arriving audience with a dependable pre concert dinner hour.

Belltown · theatre

Seattle's oldest theatre still running, at the bottom of Belltown, drawing a crowd that walks between the show and dinner rather than driving.

Downtown · music hall

Opposite Pike Place Market since 1939. Small, frequent, and squarely in the middle of the densest block of bars in the city.

University District · theatre

A small room in the University District, whose crowd is students and locals on foot, which is why it moves nearby trade more than its size suggests.
