How to get to the Seattle Seahawks’ Super Bowl parade

With nearly a million fans expected downtown for the Seahawks’ Super Bowl victory parade, transit agencies are boosting service and urging people to plan ahead, use light rail and avoid driving if possible.

The Seattle Seahawks will be hoisting the Lombardi trophy for their Super Bowl parade on Wednesday. But many going to the parade are wondering, when should I arrive?

The Super Bowl parade will commence at 11 a.m. starting at Lumen Field, moving down 4th Avenue until reaching Seattle Center. It's expected to take two hours, ending around 1 p.m.

What To Know:

The best time to line up for the Super Bowl parade will likely be around 10 a.m. or earlier, depending on where you plan to set up along the parade route.

The Seahawks World Champions Parade will begin with a Trophy Celebration at Lumen Field at 10 a.m. Doors for the Trophy Celebration will open at 8:30 a.m.

Fans can also pick up exclusive Seahawks World Champions rally cards at select Starbucks locations along the parade route downtown. Fans going to the Trophy Celebration will also receive a rally card at the gates upon entry.

Where should I park for the Super Bowl parade?

Parking will be tricky for the Super Bowl parade in Seattle, as downtown doesn't have too many options available. Free parking will be difficult to find, as most all street parking will be paid, since the parade takes place on a Wednesday.

Fans can try to find parking along the Seattle Waterfront, the Chinatown-International District, or in Queen Anne.

The Waterfront isn't far from the parade route, though there is limited parking and accessing the road could be tough. The Chinatown-International District isn't a far walk from Lumen Field, where the Super Bowl parade starts. And Queen Anne should have a few more parking options available closer to Seattle Center.

Seattle's Overlook Walkway connects Pike Place Market to the Seattle Waterfront. 

Paid event‑day parking will also be available in select lots surrounding Lumen Field. Using public transportation is highly encouraged.

More information about the Super Bowl parade can be found on the Seattle Seahawks website.
