Nestled in the heart of Seattle Center, Memorial Stadium is a historic landmark that has served as a pillar of Seattle sports culture since 1947. While its primary function is hosting high school football and soccer games, its legacy runs far deeper—it has been a site for countless concerts, community events, and even professional matches over the decades. Built to honor Seattle’s World War II veterans, the stadium carries a sense of history and local pride that resonates with generations of Seattleites. With a seating capacity of over 12,000, Memorial Stadium is one of the most intimate and nostalgic venues in the Pacific Northwest, giving spectators a close-up view of the action. While it lacks the glitz of newer stadiums, its old-school charm and connection to the community make it a beloved institution.
