HOTELS & TRAVEL
SHOW LOCATION
PAX West takes place at the Seattle Convention Center (formerly known as the Washington State Convention Center), which is conveniently located in downtown Seattle, Washington.
PAX spans two convention centers (because gaming cannot be contained to just one building, of course): The original Arch building, and the new Summit building. The buildings are a short walk away from each other, and you can see more information about the Seattle Convention Center here.
Arch Building

Summit Building

If you’re flying in, the closest airport is the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport with the airport code of SEA. There are a few options for getting from the airport to downtown Seattle, but what we recommend is taking our light rail service called the Link. Trains run from SeaTac north to downtown Seattle every 5-20 minutes depending on the time of day, and you can get more information from their website at https://www.soundtransit.org.
