Biking will be by far the best way to get to the 2023 All-Star Game. Though of course we think that biking is the best way to get just about anywhere in Seattle. But for real, I have left many busy Seattle sporting events, and no other option is even close to as good as biking. I recently went to a Sounders game that let out at the same time as a Mariners game, for example, and biking was a breeze. We met up at a restaurant afterwards with friends who didn’t bike, and we had time to finish a drink before they joined up. You might need to walk with crowds for a couple blocks, but then you get enough space to ride and it’s smooth sailing.
You can find area bike maps, including the official Seattle bike map (2022 is the latest version) on our Bike Maps page. You can also find info about bike share on our Bike Share page. If you are visiting and have any other questions about biking in town, ask us in the comments below.
The All-Star Game will be even easier to attend by bike than a typical Mariners’ game because Cascade Bicycle Club will be hosting their free bike valet service on Occidental Avenue S near the Lumen Field parking lot (bike valet map). This is the same location they use for Sounders games. Not only is bike valet wonderful and low-stress, but it also means you won’t need to try to navigate to the south side of the stadium to reach the bike cage inside the Mariners Garage on Edgar Martinez Drive S (bike cage map). The bike cage is still an option if it is more convenient, but the bike valet will be much better connected to most of the city’s bike network.
Transit service from King County Metro (local buses), Sound Transit (light rail and some regional buses) and Kitsap Transit (fast ferries across the bay) will also be free July 10 and 11. Or, you know, walking is nice. Just don’t drive.
