When to arrive

Come in Thursday evening

Fly in the night before, check into your hotel, and give yourself the evening. It means you walk into Friday morning settled and rested rather than straight off a flight with a suitcase.

Friday begins at 9am

The welcome and the opening keynote start on time, and they frame everything that follows across the two days. A Friday-morning flight will not get you here for them.

Fly home on Sunday

Saturday runs right through the evening and closes with dinner and a fireside chat, so there is no early getaway. Book your return for Sunday rather than cutting the last evening short.

Getting here

From Sea-Tac by car or rideshare

About 30–45 minutes, 15 miles. Rideshare and taxi pickup is on the 3rd floor of the airport garage. Allow extra time during weekday rush hours.

From Sea-Tac by light rail

About 50–60 minutes, around $3. Take the Link 1 Line from SEA Airport Station toward downtown and get off at Westlake Station. From there, Pier 70 is about a mile: a short rideshare, or a 20-minute walk northwest toward the waterfront.

Driving from the airport and points south

Take WA-518 W to WA-99 N through the tunnel, exit at the north portal near Aurora Ave and Denny Way, and follow signs toward the waterfront via Broad St to Alaskan Way. Alternatively, take I-5 N, exit at Seneca St, and head down to Alaskan Way, following it north to Pier 70.

Driving from the north

From I-5 S, exit at Mercer St, head west toward Seattle Center, and continue on Broad St to Alaskan Way.

Parking

Bell Street Pier 66 Cruise Port Garage, 2323 Elliott Ave, with the entrance at 9 Wall St. It is a 6–7 minute walk along the waterfront to Pier 70.

Where to stay

Several nearby hotels offer discounted rates for Pier 70 guests. Mention Pier 70 when booking.
