    Why Meet in Seattle

    Washington State Convention Center in downtown Seattle exceeds expectations for events of any size with more than 414,000 sf of function space including the new Conference Center’s 71,000 sf. Two flexible facilities accommodate banquets for thousands or intimate breakouts for 10.

    From cultural attractions and museums to outdoor recreation and fine dining, Seattle has multiple options to attract attendees and entertain them before, during or after the event. With superb hotels and unique venues, the only limit to planning a meeting or event is imagination.

    Getting around Seattle and its environs has become easier with the completion of Sound Transit's Link light rail line, which runs between downtown Seattle to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in approximately 30 minutes.
