"Century Link Field on 3rd down" has been part of my NFL bucket list for the longest time. I was fortunate enough to check this box off during a recent visit into the Seattle area - and the experience certainly didn't disappoint! ____________ The Clink had to be the most modern NFL stadium that I've been to in my lifetime - though that might not be saying much, considering that the only pro football venues that I've been to are the LA Coliseum, Qualcomm Stadium, and the Oakland Coliseum.... In any case, football games here are an absolute delight. There's nothing quite like watching the road team pick up one false start penalty after another after being relentless barked at by the eardrum-splitting 12th Man - it's nothing short of a pure adrenaline rush. I haven't experienced anything like it in all of my experiences as a sports spectator! + The Clink's location in the heart of Seattle's downtown area also has its benefits; unlike other NFL venues that seemingly operate in a self-contained microcosm, the immediate area around the stadium boasts a whole range of fun attractions, ranging from a full range of bars and craft beer breweries to concert venues/event spaces. + The logistic advantages of CenturyLink continue as you make your way inside; as others have noted, the venue is easy to navigate, and lines are bearable and effortless. + Also echoing others' sentiments - the crowd here is spirited and fun, even if you're wearing the opposing team's colors. No need to worry about having chicken wings thrown at you, a la Oakland Raiders! read more

NOTE: As of June 2011, Qwest Field has been renamed CenturyLink Field. My first visit to Qwest Field yesterday also happened to be my first sporting event in 6 years. I went to Qwest to cheer on Hawaii against Wazzu. It is my home state's university. While I didn't attend UH for college, I am a big fan and root for them even over the schools that I attended. This explains why I rooted for UH volleyball teams at Utah and Penn State. Though I want to say I root for Utah and PSU against anyone except UH. So I am not completely lacking in school spirit. Rooting for the opposite side can be a bit difficult. Considering the rabidness of college football fans, my biggest fear was being surrounded by a sea of red. Depending on Ticketmaster to find you a seat on an opponent's field is a bit disorienting. I would have bought tickets at UH's site if this was an option. I was miffed to learn later that they actually had a section aside for UH fans. Fortunately, the seating area was near numerous UH supporters. There was a lot of Coug fans nearby, but everyone around was pretty respectful. The fact that the Cougs played so horribly had something to do with this. It was actually depressing to sit near Coug fans. Some of the chatter I heard from them included comments about the Cougs running the wrong way for a own touchdown, questioning what the next foul up might be and yaying for great defense whenever UH got a penalty. While some of the halftime and timeout festivities were straight from the country. Example: A cheese rolling contest. Anyways, Qwest is a really large newish facility. It was also very big, there are tons of concession stands with overpriced food and two floors to roam around in. There are also street vendors on the side streets as well as numerous bars near Qwest to get a bite from. Restrooms were large and clean. And the stadium itself was visually very appealing place to watch football at. There were some weird scoreboard issues during the game, but other than that I had a great time at Qwest. Sure helps when the team you root for wins. read more

Love Qwest! Few things in Seattle rival the atmosphere of a Hawks home game... Been here for regular season and playoff games as well, and it's always a blast! I had really good seats, but from what I've been told by friends, there isn't a bad seat in the house. To be fair, 95% of the people stand the entire game anyway, so sitting down is kind of a moot point. There aren't many better environments to watch a sporting event ANYWHERE in the country, and I feel lucky to something as epic as Qwest in my backyard! GO HAWKS! read more

Went here on a honky tonk journey to see my guy Kenny Chesney. I've never been to lumen before even for the hawk games but definitly enjoyed the stadium. The beer is way over priced and the food is like $80 to feed two people but that's what we get with this crazy inflation. Kenny killed it too, great acoustics. read more

I attended the Luke Combs Concert here at Lumen Field, we parked in the Union Station Garage on 4th avenue and walked over using the Sound Transit pedestrian bridge near King Street Station. Upon reaching the stadium, we entered through the Muckleshoot plaza, security was severely lacking. Clear bags were not being searched nor even touched. People would be able to sneak in items with no problem. We entered and scanned our tickets then waited to enter the actual seating bowl. The gates were scheduled to open at 5, it wasn't until 5:10 that gates opened, it was a mad rush to enter the stadium. Once in we made our way to buy merch, this process took time but that was expected. Food was found and then we headed to our seats. The sound was great, it was raining but nonetheless it was a great concert. With that being said, the stadium was severely understaffed, I've worked in events for 6 years and I have never seen a stadium so severely understaffed as Lumen was. There was multiple times that individuals were over intoxicated and having to be helped out of the stadium, individuals preventing fights and other altercations from breaking out. In my 5+ hours in the stadium, I saw one seating host. At the end of the night another member of our party witnessed a lady being taken into the bathroom, highly intoxicated, she was left there. The member of our party went to a staff member to report this and they walked in, and back out and left. The same member of our party had to go to a state patrol to report it before anything was done. The lady left the bathroom in a wheelchair with medics. Later in the night on our way out, we witnessed two men walking down to the concourse, one physically restraining the other while he attempted to punch walls and the individual walking him down. This individual was not an employee, just an innocent bystander. An employee walked past and stood there for a full minute and a half before engaging with the party. Completely ridiculous, a fight could have easily broken out. Not sure if return to this stadium, lots of over serving and guest entering intoxicated. I don't have a problem with drinking, I have a problem with a lack of staff to control the drinking. read more

Despite a couple of hiccups, I'm giving them a 5 star review because the overall experience was awesome. I flew to Portland to visit friends and segued to Seattle for the Coldplay show this past weekend. We got to the venue a little early to enjoy the scenery. I'm assuming people just figured we were going to the show. Whenever I would pass someone, they'd stop me and told me that I won't be able to get my purse in to the venue. I was too puzzled by the randomness. Firstly, the show announcement doesn't include any of that information. So we lined up to get through security and someone came up to me and my friend and held out a piece of paper then proceeded to tell us rudely that we couldn't go in with our purses. I didn't want to argue so I lined up at the spot where we could get a locker. It cost $20 to check in one purse. Anyway. We finally get through security. Getting to our area from where we walked in was a mess. It took forever and was a little confusing. We purposely missed the opening acts since we didn't care for them. Got to our seats just about 15 minutes before the main event. So we find our seats and find other peole seated there. I made sure we were in the right area before even arguing with anyone. I was of course annoyed that the people didn't even acknowledge that they jacked our seats. Some lady one row ahead asked me to verify my seats and I told her nicely "those ones" pointing to where other people were seated. Instead of arguing with the people, we decided to walk all the way down to reassess our situation. On our walk down, an employee overheard me talking about what had just happened and she motioned for me to go over to her so I did. She asked me how many people there were in my party and when I confirmed there were three of us, she handed me over THREE FREE TICKETS to much better seats. We ended up having to be honest the best seat in the house. It was right in front of the stage. Thank you so much to Rita for making our night. We were seated next to people that she also gave free tickets to and they were awesome folks. We sang and danced the night along together. The only other con I can think of is the obnoxious parking charges. I saw signs charging up to $40. I mean WTF. It cost half that to park in L.A. I will say their drinks were cheaper so that's a plus. Their beer selection was also better than most venues I've been to. Despite the few hiccups it was still a great experience. The people who worked inside were all very nice. From the concession stands to the vendors walking around. read more

I like that the Seahawks play there! Lol it's okay as far as stadiums go. I haven't been to many others so I don't have a lot to compare to. The food options are okay I feel like most of the good ones are only on the first level which sucks if your seats are 3rd level. I would like to see some healthier options and cheaper options. The staff is hit or miss I lost some jerseys and they did track them down after a few weeks which was awesome. I know it's my fault but had they checked the suite throughly where I accidentally left them like they said they did (they were in the closet of the suite) I could have gotten them back the same day. The views are good and I like sporting events but not concerts. read more

Been here a time or two.... Lets get one thing straight, I am NOT a Seahawk fan. I am born and raised WA. but never was a fan and I'm not jumping on the band wagon either. However, this is one of the best stadiums in the NFL. The so called Die hard fans are trained well, silent while their offense is at work and LOUD AS HELL when their opponent is on the field. I have been to several games and I have sat in many different sections, ranging from nose bleeds to front row end zone. There IS NOT a bad seat in this house..... Im not a fan of the Hawks nest due to the movement (the bleachers sway with the crowd) The tailgating is not very good due to the city layout, but where they can, they do. read more

Came here for a work function and wow, what a great stadium. We got a complete tour of the stadium. Favorite part was the Hawks Nest where they raise the 12 flag. Pretty incredible view to say the least. Unfortunatly I haven't been to a game, but would jump at the chance to attend in person. The staff at the stadium were great. read more

We love coming here for football games! Come early to grab some drinks and garlic fries to beat the lines. New COVID protocols require you to show proof of vaccination prior to entry but tickets are not checked until you are well into the stadium. read more

I've came to CenturyLink Field for Seahawks and Sounders games, and concerts - I'm here every season. Make sure you pre-funk before entering because you'll spend $10 for a sip of wine, and then some for beer. Unlike Safeco where you could bring a backpack in, you must have a clear bag if you want to get through or a small clutch. Ladies come prepared! I think the lockers are like $10 or you just have to walk back to your car. Lines go by fast whether it's a game or a concert. Staff is extremely helpful when it comes to finding your seats in case you don't know how to get around. Restroom are huge and clean. Food. I LOVE their garlic fries (I just love fries in general), but they never seem to give me enough apple slices. Hard alcohol is offered on the suite level - of course the prices are high for that and you must have a suite level pass. I've sat all around the stadium and you will always have a nice view. If you are sitting in the hawk's nest during a day game and the sun is beaming on you, bring sunglasses! If you are coming for an evening event, depending on the season or how chilly you get, you may want to bundle up because it gets COLD. Or at least bring a jacket in case unless you plan on spending $70+ for a hoodie. read more

Cool stadium, as loud as they say it is (can't imagine what it would be like if it had a roof!), super friendly staff and security. Food options were a little lacking and the counters were very specific - one large concession sold fish/chips and basically no other main meals (chicken or hot dogs)... actually, come to think of it, I don't think I saw a hot dog or burger stand. Also seemed to not have the in-seat food/drink delivery that is commonly available in many larger cities. Location is great - we were staying downtown and it was a super easy and safe walk to the stadium before and after. If it was a Thursday/Sunday/Monday Night game I might want to Uber home or at least not hang around too late and walk with the crowd back to downtown. Pre-game was cool - they have a big conference area with entertainment, Toyota gave away tshirts, and interviews with Seahawk players' families. Tailgate was lacking compared to other stadiums I've been to, but honestly it seems like most people walked in - didn't see many huge parking lots. The few places outside the stadium that I'd classify as tailgating were pretty commercial. I like the tailgates where fans are doing the cooking and give away beer for free! Lol read more

As much as I love sports, I hate having to go to Century Link to see them. The actual building in itself is a great venue, but the event staff is almost just as bad as the event staff at T-Mobile park. There have been several instances over this last football/soccer season where the staff has demonstrated rude and abnormal behavior to myself and other people that I see trying to buy items at concessions and merchandise booths. Most recently at the last Seahawks game, I was in the middle of making a purchase and about to put my card into the chip reader and the cashier smacked my hand away from the card reader, grabbed my items out of my hand, and told me that all sales ended at the end of the 3rd quarter. She then proceeded to walk by me so close that she bumped me out of the way on her way to put my stuff back (this was at grab-and-go stand). I'm not sure where the sense of entitlement comes from but it feels like crap to get treated that way, in various forms, consistently. I'm sure I will go back to the stadium because its the main sports venue in Seattle, but I don't really look forward to trying to buy food or drinks there, at all. read more

In the nose bleed seats but still enjoyed watching the Seahawks. The seats were clean. Lots of food options. No issues getting to a restroom. Surprised by the number of good IPA options. Typically the sound in a stadium is muffled due to echo but I could here the announcer fairly easily. Only negative was getting through the ticket check coming in. Gigantic pile of people mooing their way through. read more

We sat in the Reserve Club suite for the Sounders' match against Miami on April 16th. It was my birthday. While the suite was very nice and the seats provided a great view, and the bartender was excellent, the food was far below the quality we have come to expect. We have sat in a suite before for a RAVE event, and once in the press box as a guest of Alan Hinton and the food there was very good. We have also had pitch side seats before and enjoyed that food too. The food on Saturday was far less than very good. The chicken Parmesan was so overcooked that I had a hard time cutting it with my knife. The spaghetti tasted like it was out of a can and the cannoli was lacking anything resembling cream cheese, just whipped cream and a shell. We were very disappointed and feel that we did not receive what we paid for. We understand that the Sounders don't prepare the food and hope that this reaches the staff at Lumen Field who do. Lumen Field food prep needs to do a much better job. Go Sounders! read more

WORST concert venue I have ever been to. I have been to so many amazing, memorable concerts. So horrible. Customer service was horribly not understanding. I will never go to a concert at this location ever again. After going to the bathroom we went through a staircase exit and to the main floor to get back to our family, and we ended up getting sent through a permanent exit. They would 100% not let us back through. We had to get a Seahawks employee to get us back through the main entrance after asking the main entrance employee politely multiple times to allow us through despite our situation. I heavily discourage anyone from coming to this venue unless you know what you are getting yourself into and have connections that have your back to get you into this concert. read more

Lumen Field - Asshole - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I've been to a Sounders game and a Seahawks game. Parking is expensive around the stadium like $30 so I usually just park in a garage off 4th & Seneca/Spring (only $10!) and walk to the stadium. It's a short walk and you can walk with the crowd heading over to the stadium. It's really steep walking up to the 300 section but you still have a pretty good view of the field. The food and beer is overpriced but you can bring in sealed water bottles and small snacks (I think? Don't quote me on that). I got a vinyl Seahawks tote on sale for $3 @ Safeway. I can stuff a blanket, beanie, 2 pairs of gloves, 2 water bottles, ear muffs, wallet, and keys in there! They have the giant Super Bowl XLVIII statue that you can take a pic with on the ground floor! So cool! Go Sounders! Go Hawks! read more

This has got to be the most beautifully designed stadium. Those engineers even got it to where you can see some of the majestic sky scrapers of the city. Finally went to my first Seahawks game against the Eagles yesterday November 20, 2016. It's so loud inside with screaming 12th men, women and children. Just be prepared to feel the noise within your jaw bones and skull when you yell along with all the other 12's in a sold out crowd. Don't worry, your head won't explode, but it might feel like it. Also, be ready to lose your voice, but don't feel alone. Many a 12th man fans will be right along with you the following day. It's easy to find your way around to the restrooms with easy W and M signs. If you can't figure that out, there is something wrong with you, but keep in mind, lines can be super long, so I wouldn't hold it until last minute. *BIG MISTAKE* I was in sticker shocked and a price of a cup of coffee $5 from Starbucks. I couldn't justify waiting in a long line for a $5 cup of drip. Couldn't do it, but it didn't stop others from spending $12.50 for a chicken and waffle sandwich the size of a hamburger. Looked good but I wasn't going to pay for that. Step into a shop where you can buy some gear. Prices are the same as everywhere else. So the downside would be the cost of food and drinks. What a crazy madhouse during the half time. You can't go far before you have to turn around and go back to your seat. The other thing is to be aware that seagulls manage to fly overhead if you're in an uncovered zone on either open end of the stadium so beware of possible target practice. lol Anyway, I loved the experience and hope to attend another game in the future. read more

Having visited the Clink on several recent occasions - including for the Taylor Swift concert, the Bacon, Eggs & Kegs festival, and (most recently) a kick-ass Seattle Seahawks game I can safely say this place is pretty cool. It's huge, but well laid out with plenty of food/drink options and a well-placed bathroom around every corner. The beer is horrendously expensive, but that's nothing new. And if you use your Amex to pay for it you get a free pair of Seahawks gloves to ease the pain! The ramps up to the nosebleeds (where I always seem to end up sitting) are a little monotonous - but hey: exercise! And I apologize for all the whining I did when they imploded my childhood friend, the Kingdome, to build it. I like you, CenturyLink, I really really like you. read more

If you lie while on the stand, and the cops link your felony to the Seahawks, then they'll have to rename it PerjuryLink Field. Thankfully you didn't, so they can't, and it won't be. This is one of the greatest stadiums in Asia. Which is incredible since it's not even in Asia. It's one of the best stadiums in not only Seattle, not only Washington, not only the USA, not only North America, not only the Americas, but the ENTIRE PACIFIC NORTH WEST. Oh wait, I'm not sure if that made sense. First-Hand Experience: Info on my personal visit to this stadium - I have seen the Seahawks play here and win, I have seen the Sounders play here and win, so I am a lucky charm. Either that or this stadium is just so intimidating that the home team nearly always wins. Yes, that's probably what it is. I loved this stadium more than almost any other. It's so loud, so intense, so uniquely designed with downtown hovering right behind it. I don't know how it keeps the noise in but my goodness, it does. One of the highest volume stadiums in the whole world. True passion. Seattle loves its Seahawks. I was last here 3 years ago though before the success began. So I need to come back and watch a game now that the team is on top of the world. Now that I've been to every NFL stadium (current and former) and seen all 32 teams play live in the flesh, time to review them on Yelp! I love stadia! I've been to every cool sports arena in the UK & North America, it's an obsession I have with travel & sport. I've roamed America as a musician for years. In that time, I've seen sports games at (or toured when empty, or both) almost every major stadium in US/Canada. Many pictures taken which I'll upload eventually. On future travels, I'll new pix, and add more stadiums! Watch this space! ***back to regular review*** It's a brilliant stadium for the Seahawks, it trades places as "loudest in NFL" with my beloved Arrowhead in KC. It's a brilliant stadium for the Sounders too, a tragedy that they haven't won a championship yet but a testament to the amazing fans that they get louder every year - they will win one soon. The design is spectacular, the location right next to downtown is brilliant, and the view, with Puget Sound to the West, high rises of downtown to the North, Mt Rainier to the East (ish), and... er... Tukwila... to the... South... anyway... you get my point. Oh as for what food to get in Seattle, obviously go to PASEO and get their biggest selling sandwich, it's incredible! There's also a cool burger place in Tacoma but I'll have to look up the name. Oh and I love the bus on MLK Blvd or something, that sells tacos. Some of the best tacos anywhere! Utterly amazing, 5/5 stadium that any sports team in the world would be jealous of. Hi to my ex-gf in Seattle by the way. Oh and if you are a guard, and you wear Axe, then you should know Axe is called Lynx in England, therefore this stadium is named after you (SentryLynx Field). read more

Great stadium with lots of food and beverage options. From the suites to the upper seats; good sight lines pretty much everywhere. Security lines can take some time to allow for.

12th man is real. I am a true believer after watching my Patriots lose in the last 2 minutes this past Sunday 10/14/12. Aside from the fact that I shelled out more dough on this game than any other sporting event I've ever been to and seeing Sidney Rice burn the Pats secondary being like a big mental kick in the nuts, the stadium and football experience was great. We were 3rd row by the 3 year line on the visitor side. We loved the seats. I liked how many food and beverage vendors were around so there was never more than a 5 minute wait max for anything. Tons of restrooms as well so I didn't hesitate in buying more $9.75 beers. $7.50 slices of Papa John's was kinda crazy but I didn't want to wait 10 minutes for them to grill a sausage. I would definitely go back but maybe lower my expectations for a visitor win. I am still sick over the "L" but Seahawks fans were not offensive at all unlike any other city I would've been in wearing Patriots garb post loss. I gotta hand it to them for their classiness. read more

I've been to Qwest for many football games and loved every game. There truly is not a bad seat in the place. Parking for football games can be a pain in the butt as well as expensive but for other events it's not that bad. This past Saturday I was there for a Sounders game, great stadium for soccer games, if you sit with in 9 rows from the field you'll get a great view of the soccer legs, I mean the game. The ladies room are clean, fully stocked, have plenty of warm water and is a nice place to warm up. The food/beer are just as over priced as they are at SAFECO if you are going for any event bring lots of cash or the plastic. **Update** While my nephews were in town I took them to a pre-season game, neither of them had been to an NFL game before so it was pretty exciting for them. They both loved the stadium and the Jones soda now being served there. They thought the noise factor was great and thought not only was I the Bestest Aunt in the Whole Wide World for taking them here but I was also the coolest. read more

* Event Center * Two years in a roll, I picked up the half-marathon package from Qwest Field event center. Great Location! It's very close to International District and Pioneer Square. Therefore, if there are games going on whether in Qwest Field or SafeCo Field, I can take bus and not worry about parking and traffic. The event center is open wide and clean. Big space. I've never been there for a game. However, I'd like to watch Seahawks or Sounders in the future! read more

*A review of brief stopping, standing and wandering* CenturyLink Field is definitely a bowl full of awesomeness. Recently, I had the joy of experiencing it for the first time during the Sounders game: ---chanting! ---big drums! ---bongos! ---streamers! ---flags! ---cowbells! ---horns! A buddy of mine invited me to my first Sounders game (and also probably to my first Seahawks game, come this Fall)... this was definitely a fun, different crowd and experience---I can only imagine the energy during football! Since it was rather less than pleasant to sit in our seats, we decided to walk around under shelter, stopping briefly at times to observe the field action and try to catch the ".....oooo--OOOOHHHHH!"-ing. Plenty of choices for my garlic fries fix... despite me forgetting to mention "No added salt, please!" From any opening into the bowl, you can feel the air and pulse from the crowd and field. The screens look great, if a smidge small. The balcony face electronics and sound system are good. The corridors definitely feel rather more utilitarian than Safeco Field. CL Field gets lower marks for the paint job, audio level and breezy factor in these areas compared to Safeco Field. I feel like more of the "great atmosphere" is mainly in the bowl. The Level Ramps are also way too huge... Kingdome much? And yes, I do understand baseball can be more leisurely and relaxed than the happening sports over in this joint but to me it looks like the design/color could've better matched the PNW like its neighbor... and this was finished a few years after Safeco Field. Not bad for my first Sounders match. I love football and shall return for an epic Seahawks game! read more

I was here last night 7/14/2014 for the sounders game and the retractable roof allowed for a spectacular view of the sunset, ferris wheel, and space needle (photo attached). It was marvelous. This retractable roof feature is one of the greater appeals of this stadium. I've been to CenturyLink Field for various Sounders games and while it's one of the smallest of the recently developed NFL stadiums, the tiered seating allows for up to a capacity of 72,000 people . They have great disability accommodations (elevators and ramps). The concession stands offer fairly decent foods, with the pricing obviously more expensive than usual. Food brands offer: - Starbucks drinks (all served in Grande size) with a price range of 5.75-6.75 per drink. - BEER (priced $9) - Oberto and Papa Johns Pizza - Chinese Food - Clam Chowder - Hot dogs - Kettle Corn - Sushi - KIDD Valley Burgers - Garlic Fries, regular fries, etc. And more. Overall it was a wonderful experience and the Sounders won 2-0 against the Portland Timbers so that sorta made the experience all the more wonderful :) read more

Having spent a good solid quarter of my childhood in the Kingdome between the Mariners and the Seahawks, I was very upset when it was imploded, but only because I could not fathom at that time just how great football and baseball could be in Seattle. I love Qwest Field. I love spending my winter Sundays there. I love that it is not covered (give you one guess where I was born and raised). I love that it affords awesome views of the city. I love tailgating outside it. I love the way it looks at night, lit up with colored lights, from the Viaduct. I love that there are never lines for the women's restroom. And I love that it is arguably the loudest stadium in the NFL, despite being one of the newest. The only thing I do not like about Qwest is the cost of beer: $8. I have season tickets, so this had the potential to be a huge money suck for me over the course of a season. But thanks to airplane bottles and Jones soda, I have figured out how to drink on the cheap at games so that is no longer an issue. The food can be expensive, too, so I just bring a PBJ. The security guy last game was so distracted by the sandwich ("Nice sandwich!" he says) in my purse that he never even noticed my vanilla Stoli bottles... There are truly no bad seats in Qwest Field! The Hawk's Nest (the triangular, prow-of-the-ship section on the north end) is really exposed to the weather, true, but you do get the pleasure of being a part of what is the equivalent of a giant human powered drum when everyone starts stomping their feet. It's deafening! And I love the fans. Yes, they get loud, they get drunk, they get obnoxious... it's football! It's supposed to be that way! It's not the opera or a matinee movie. Thank god that Seattleites finally have something worth getting rude and rowdy about! read more

For the corporate event, we were inside the building and not out in the stands. The place had been changed over for the event. Security was friendly. Everything was set up and run very well. Corporate Event Con: There was only one bathroom area for the entire area that was for thousands of people so that wasn't good planning on whoever decided that. Concert Con: We were up in the nosebleed section and the acoustics were terrible. Absolutely pure torture. We could not understand hardly anything that the singer was saying and this was one of our favorite bands. I would stay away from here for any concert event unless you were able to get seats down towards the field. read more

Mall cop "security" is extremely rude and excessive. One person directs you to do something and multiple others shout same thing,

See all

I have been to a few football stadiums, so when I say-nothing compares to Century Link Field, I mean NOTHING compares to century link field. I was on the field before the game, and staring up at the stands was an out of body experience. The city is set beautifully behind the stadium, and the noise level is off the charts! If you have sensitive ears, bring plugs! The stadium is fairly easy to navigate. They have a plethora of staff at hand for your every question and need. If you are lucky enough to be in the club level-the food is delicious! My personal indulgence is salmon flatbread. YUMMMM! You are in for a fun time, beyond the sporting event! read more

Lumen Field - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I've been to a few NFL stadiums but with every visit to Qwest Field I am reminded how none even compare to this one. The view, the spirit, the food, the noise (7 hours later and my ears are still ringing) and the view from the west end food court make for some great memories. I am not a beer drinker so I am nonplussed about the $7.50 beer price, but $4.00 for 16 oz of soda (although Jones Soda is pretty good stuff) hits me where I live. On the west facing upper deck is a large food court, and tucked away on the north end of it, around a corner is a wonderful little unassuming hot dog booth. Huge hot dogs smothered in good stuff like chili or cheese and bacon. One is plenty! Hard to eat at your seat though, pays to come early. Consistently, Qwest Field is my all time favorite NFL experience. Now if I could say as nice things about the 2008 Seattle Seahawks. *sigh* read more
