Kick Off the 2026 NFL Season in Seattle!
Be there live as the Seattle Seahawks host the official 2026 NFL regular-season opening game on Wednesday, September 9, 2026! The defending Super Bowl LX champion Seahawks are taking on the New England Patriots under the primetime lights of NBC’s broadcast at Lumen Field. Because this game is played on a rare Wednesday night to accommodate international schedules, the energy across Seattle will be electric. Avoid the massive game-day hotel price spikes and surging parking fees by locking in an incredible, hassle-free hotel package.
Secure your football getaway today:
- The Hotel: Stay at The Dylan, a Baymont by Wyndham hotel (formerly the OuterSpace Bellevue/Seattle). Known for its highly vibrant, aviation-themed retro design, this tech-forward boutique property features ultra-comfortable rooms, streaming-ready setups, and free high-speed Wi-Fi to upload game-day photos.
- Unbeatable Value Rate: Lock in your room for just $122 per night – INCLUDING PARKING! When Seattle hosted the NFL Kickoff game in 2014 fans were paying that much just for parking, as spots are at a premium in downtown Seattle during a weekday. Avoid the post-game hassles of leaving the Seattle area, especially if you choose to fully celebrate Seattle’s second Lombardi trophy. Your room and parking are at an incredible value, but space is limited. BOOK NOW!!!

🚊 Getting to Lumen Field
Skip the heavy stadium traffic gridlock and expensive lot fees. Getting from The Dylan to the stadium gates is simple and efficient:
- Link Light Rail (Recommended): Take a quick ride over to the nearby Link Light Rail network. It drops fans off directly at the Stadium Station or International District/Chinatown Station, leaving you just a short, high-energy walk from the stadium gates.
- Rideshare / Taxis: Direct rideshares via Uber or Lyft are plentiful from the hotel lobby. Be sure to request your ride early to beat the pre-game rush hour.
🥳 Game-Day Events & Stadium Festivities
Because Seattle is hosting the official NFL Kickoff presented by YouTube TV, the area surrounding Lumen Field will transform into a massive football festival starting early in the afternoon:
- NFL Kickoff Experience: Expect a massive, free-to-enter interactive fan festival outside the stadium, featuring live musical performances by major national artists, NFL trophy displays, interactive skills games, and legendary player appearances.
- Muckleshoot Plaza Tailgate: The stadium’s main courtyard will open early, featuring local food trucks, outdoor bars, live DJ sets, and massive outdoor screens playing the pre-game coverage.
- Lumen Field Convention Center: Catch the pre-game show, meet some Seahawks Legends and grab a beverage and a bit before heading into the stadium. This is a high-energy space and will feature performances by the Seahawk Dancers and Blue Thunder!
- The Hawk Alley Tailgate: Walk through the surrounding SODO neighborhood to experience Seattle’s community-driven pop-up tailgates, where thousands of fans gather for local brews and street food. Between fan-based tailgates in surrounding parking lots and parking lot parties ran by local businesses, there is something for everyone.
Rooms for the official NFL Kickoff will go fast at this exclusive $122 rate. Secure your room at The Dylan now!
