Summertime at Seattle Center offers a world of free and affordable possibilities. From large outdoor festivals and KeyArena events to Summer Fitness, Festál celebrations and Mural Amphitheatre movies and concerts, Seattle Center is the "go to" place for fun family activities, spirited nightlife, journeys into our region's cultures and communitywide gatherings.
