Kings of Leon

Climate Pledge Arena is about 15 miles from Seatac, about 28 minutes by car in normal traffic; event traffic adds more. Your ticket includes a free King County transit pass from two hours before doors to two hours after the event. You can book a private ride from the airport or your hotel on this page, with the pickup timed for the start and the ride back after.

About 10 minutes in normal traffic, and about 20 minutes from Bellevue. Most cars arrive by the Mercer St and Stewart St exits off I-5, which back up before and after events. Leaving by SR 99 or Elliott Ave usually beats the Mercer queue.

For a 7:30 pm start, leave Seatac by about 6:15 pm or downtown Seattle by about 6:35 pm. That is the drive plus 45 minutes to get through the gates and find your seat.

There is no drop-off on 1st Ave N. Cars drop off at Republican St & Warren Ave N, the MoPOP turnaround, the McCaw Hall lane on Mercer St or the Pacific Science Center zone on Denny Way.

Pickups next to the arena pause for 30 to 45 minutes after events, so expect a short walk. The arena points to MoPOP and the Space Needle on Broad St, and Seattle Center to Thomas St & Taylor Ave N. Set the exact spot with your driver.

Seattle Center's 5th Ave N and Mercer St garages charge $15–$30 at peak times. Street parking in Uptown switches to an event rate on big nights. With a private ride there is no parking to pay or find.

The listing gives only the start. Shows like this usually run about 2 hours, so expect it to end around 9:30 pm. The ride back is set for then, and you can change it when you book.
