Free Parking Days
Street parking in most Seattle neighborhoods is free on Sundays and certain holidays.
However, special event parking rates may still be charged on these days in some parts of the Uptown neighborhood near Climate Pledge Arena on any day when a scheduled event is expected to draw over 10,000 attendees, in order to help people going to nearby homes and businesses find parking spaces. Arena special event days and parking rates are listed here.
While some types of parking and loading have Sunday and holiday exceptions, the rules for other types of parking and loading remain in place on Sundays and holidays. Please check the specific nearby signs when parking to verify the rules for that space or block.
