Additional Information

Additional details

Celebrating more than 35 years as the Pacific Northwest’s premier meetings and events facility, Seattle Convention Center’s Arch building is perfectly placed among the city’s compact downtown and within easy walking distance of iconic attractions, unbeatable sights, and additional venues. Featuring over 430,000 square feet of highly configurable event space, Arch offers industry-leading service, award-winning catering, and a comprehensive range of services for event planners, exhibitors, and guests. With a longstanding commitment to sustainability, public art, and modern technology, SCC provides visitors with a truly unique Northwest experience. In January 2023, the Seattle Convention Center opened the Summit building, providing even more space for innovation, celebration, and collaboration. Summit offers 570,000 square feet of additional event space and pairs with the existing Arch building—just one-and-a-half blocks away—to double the capacity of the campus. Each component of this new construction embraces natural light and major spaces are connected vertically by two large atria and window walls. Summit’s stunning 58,000-square-foot ballroom offers panoramic views and the 100,000-square-foot Flex Hall—fully carpeted, acoustically treated, and column-free—are blank slates inviting meeting planners to bring their ideas to life.
