The Washington State Convention Center (WSCC) continues to closely monitor news regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and protections ordered by state, county and city officials. In alignment with Governor Jay Inslee's Stay Home, Stay Healthy proclamation and subsequent Safe Start Washington plan, WSCC has temporarily closed the building until further notice. The Main Garage and Freeway Park Garage open.

On July 7 WSCC announced on its commitment to achieve the Global Biorisk Advisory Council® (GBAC) STAR™ accreditation on outbreak prevention, response and recovery. Recognized as the gold standard of safe venues, GBAC STAR™ provides third-party validation to ensure the implementation of rigorous protocols in response to biorisk situations. Read the full media release here.

We look forward to the time when we can once again welcome clients, guests and visitors to the Convention Center. With this in mind, WSCC staff is available via phone and email to ensure business and administrative processes continue during the building closure. Staff contact information can be found on our website Contact Us page.

WSCC recommends the public stay informed on COVID-19. Resources include:

Friday, August 30 – Monday, September 2, 2019

A major event, PAX West, will fully occupy the Washington State Convention Center (WSCC) from Friday, August 30 to Monday, September 2. This event may impact how you navigate the area around WSCC.

WSCC will be closed from 6:00 am – 10:00 am to the general public. During that time, only PAX West attendees will be permitted entrance after passing through security checkpoints, including metal detectors and bag checks. At approximately 10:00 am, the public will be allowed to enter the Center on the first floor after passing through security. Entrances on all other floors will remain closed.

Traffic and Parking

As with all major events at WSCC, we anticipate higher than usual traffic and pedestrian congestion, along with limited parking in the area. If parking in the WSCC Main Garage, please plan to exit via the 8th Avenue sidewalk and walk around the building to your destination. Access through the third-floor WSCC entrance will be restricted.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
