Stadium station is literally behind center field, 2 minutes to the gates, $3 each way. - If driving, pre-book through SpotHero. Walk-up rates spike $10-15 on weekend and rivalry games. - SoDo traffic is brutal post-game. I-5 and I-90 approaches back up for 30+ minutes. Budget extra time or wait it out at a bar. - Rideshare drop-off on Edgar Martinez Drive. Post-game pickup is better from 1st Avenue South to avoid the stadium traffic. - Pioneer Square parking is the best value if you want pregame bars + a pleasant walk to the game. ## Seating T-Mobile Park seats 47,929 across three main levels with a retractable roof that keeps the rain out while preserving sightlines of the Seattle skyline.
