Museum of Communications
A museum of antique telephone equipment, although "warehouse" might be a better description than museum, with racks upon racks crammed full of equipment. Many exhibits are kept functional, including mechanical and electronic switches, telephone poles, and antique telephones. Tours take at least an hour, but will go on for 2-3hrs you have strong technical interests and lots of questions. The building itself is still owned by CenturyLink.
A massive air and space museum, near the original Boeing factory. The museum consists of an indoor area that is further divided into the history, jet age, airport operations, and space travel, and an outdoor section where you can sneak inside retired airplanes. The collection includes 131 aircraft and spacecraft ranging from wood and fabric crates to the SR-71, Space Shuttle Trainer, a retired Air-Force One and a Concorde. It's arguably better than even the Smithsonian's Air and Space Museum in the other Washington. Tours to the vicinity of the airport inside a van are available, but most spots do not allow cameras for security purposes! The Museum offers a large educational outreach program including weekend family workshops, the Aerospace Camp Experience (ACE) summer day camp, and an aviation high school.

Since 1999, T-Mobile Park has been home to the Seattle Mariners baseball team and is one of the finest ballparks in the country. Right field bleacher seats enjoy a panoramic view of Downtown and Elliott Bay. An element of the unique atmosphere is the train whistle that sounds each time a Mariners' home run occurs. The stadium offers anything from traditional ballpark dogs and the famous garlic fries to fine gourmet fare and local beers. The aroma of food is everywhere inside the park. There couldn't be a better way to spend a summer evening with friends and family in Seattle. Take the elevator to 300 level to the Rooftop Boardwalk and see great views of the Puget Sound and downtown skyline and check out the free Mariners Hall of Fame on the 100 level for interesting exhibits and photos of Mariners players and memorabilia. You can tour the stadium for $10, $5 children ages 3-12. Schedules vary by season, but there are always tours at 12:30PM and 2:30PM, except during game days. You can buy the tickets online or at the Mariners pro shop.
Home to Seattle's beloved Seahawks American football team since 2002 and Sounders soccer club, plus the women's soccer club Seattle Reign, Lumen Field is an impressive open air sports arena with great views beyond the goal posts. It was also host to 6 matches during the 2026 World Cup. The stadium itself is notorious for being deafening while the so-called 12th Man cheers for the Seahawks. If you can't make it to the game, you can join a tour to see a glance of the history of the teams that call the spot home. Tours are held Fridays and Saturdays at 12:30PM and 2:30PM for $12, $5 for child ages 4-12, $8 ages 65+.
