Travel
Overview

T-Mobile Park is in Seattle's SoDo district, just south of Pioneer Square and adjacent to the King Street Station rail hub. The Link Light Rail makes access easy, Stadium station is directly behind center field. Sounder commuter rail runs game-day service from south King County and Tacoma. Driving is possible but I-5 and I-90 clog badly on game days. For out-of-towners, Sea-Tac Airport is 14 miles south, reachable by Link Light Rail in about 40 minutes.

Intelligence

Crowdsourced logistics and veteran shortcuts from the fan community. Every tip is voted on by fellow game-day veterans.

Tip #1

Link Light Rail is the best option, Stadium station is behind center field. Two minutes to the gates, no parking needed.

Tip #2

Sounder commuter rail runs special game-day service from south King County. Check the Sound Transit schedule for your station.

Tip #3

I-5 through downtown Seattle is a nightmare on game days. If driving, use the surface streets on 1st Avenue or 4th Avenue South.

Tip #4

Sea-Tac Airport to the park is about 40 minutes on the Link Light Rail, a feasible same-day option for out-of-town fans.

Tip #5

Post-game, the I-90 on-ramp at Royal Brougham Way backs up for 30+ minutes. Wait at a Pioneer Square bar and let traffic clear.

Tip #6

Water taxis from West Seattle dock at Pier 50, a 15-minute walk or short bus ride to the park. A scenic alternative.
