Welcome to Seattle Center, an active civic arts, and family gathering place in the core of our region. More than 30 cultural, educational, sports, and entertainment organizations that reside on the grounds, together with a broad range of public and community programs, create thousands of events on the 74-acre campus and attract over 12 million visitors each year. This curated list of major events offers just a glimpse into what you’ll enjoy this year at Seattle Center. 

A series of pop-up performances across campus throughout the year, offering surprising and delightful doses of arts, entertainment, and culture.

Celebrate our nation’s independence while congratulating new U.S. citizens at the Naturalization Ceremony, the largest daytime Independence Day observance in the Northwest.

Seattle’s newest holiday tradition is right around the corner! Step into a magical European Christmas Village at the Fisher Pavilion Lawn from Nov 24 - Dec 24.
