Amazon purchased the naming rights, but the arena name outlines their goal to be, “the most progressive, responsible, and sustainable arena in the world”.  The arena reopened in October of 2022 after undergoing a billion dollar remodel. Impressively, the arena is now powered exclusively by renewable energy.

Location of Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle

The convenient location of Climate Pledge is perfect for DMC clients staying at Downtown Seattle hotels.  It’s also a great fit for local Seattle area companies looking for a new venue to help shake things up for meetings and events. 

Climate Pledge is located on the north end of Downtown Seattle in the Seattle Center, and the arena is walking distance to many Seattle landmarks. It’s close to the Space Needle, the Museum of Pop Culture (MoPOP), and the Chihuly Garden and Glass to name a few.

Transportation is easy with plenty of room for chartered groups, taxi or ride-share vehicles, or even public transportation on the very unique Seattle Monorail.  Fun fact – Life Magazine featured the Seattle Monorail on the May of 1962 cover.
