Please check the event page of the event you are attending to see if there are options to pre-purchase parking. Pricing and a "buy now"link will be in the event description if event parking is available.
For gameday, most parking spots are allocated to Season Ticket Holders. If you do not have a pass, we recommend using public transportation or looking to alternate parking garages like the Metro Parking Garage, Union Station Parking Garage, or T-Mobile Park garage.

Public Transit FAQs

Can I park and ride on the Link Light Rail?

Free parking is available at Angle Lake, Tukwila International Boulevard and Northgate stations. We recommend getting off at SODO, International District/Chinatown Station, or Pioneer Square station for a short walk to Lumen Field.

How do I pay for a Link Light Rail ticket?

The Transit GO Ticket App or pre-loaded ORCA card is the ideal option for skipping lines at the ticket vending machines located at all Link Light Rail stations. Download the Transit GO Ticket App and purchase a Day Pass ahead of the event you are attending. Don't forget to activate your ticket before getting on the train and show your screen to the fare enforcement officer if asked. If using an ORCA card, remember to tap on and off with your card when you get on and off. Day Passes may also be purchased at your originating station.
