Seattle is the gateway to the Pacific Northwest.

Seattle is your perfect home base to find your Northwest Adventure, whether that is enjoying the downtown amenities of this beautiful waterfront city or venturing further afield to discover the landscapes of Olympic National Park or Mt. Rainer National Park.

A city of sound, Seattle is renowned for nurturing all sorts of musical genres, from opera to rock and roll. This is the birthplace of iconic guitarist Jimi Hendrix and where king of soul Quincy Jones and blues legend Ray Charles cut their teeth.

It is also the city where Kurt Cobain’s Nirvana, among a host of other grunge metal bands, kicked off a new wave of alternative music in the late 1980s. The eclectic musical influences can still be experienced in Seattle today, with a vibrant and thriving live music scene where virtually every musical taste is catered for and a live musical performance is never too far away.
