About The Showbox

The Showbox is a legendary Seattle venue with two distinct locations: The Showbox at the Market (1426 1st Ave, Seattle, WA 98101) and The Showbox SoDo (1700 1st Ave S, Seattle, WA 98134). Known for its intimate to mid-size rooms and a storied history that includes performances by Duke Ellington, Muddy Waters, Pearl Jam, Death Cab for Cutie, and more, The Showbox continues to be a centerpiece for live music in the Pacific Northwest. Whether you’re catching a headline concert or discovering a rising act, we’ve got you covered with practical details to secure your seats and plan your visit.

Note: Each Showbox venue operates as its own, standalone space with its own schedule, capacity, and amenities. Check the specific venue page for the exact show details and ticketing options.

Seating, parking, and transit options vary by venue. The Market site is primarily standing with configurable seating (roughly 300–750 seats depending on setup) and no on-site parking, while nearby garages and street parking are available. The SoDo location offers on-site parking limited in capacity and relies on nearby pay lots. Both venues are accessible by public transit and are well connected to downtown Seattle. For a comfortable stay, consider nearby hotels such as Mayflower Park Hotel, Kimpton Monaco Seattle, and Kimpton Hotel Vintage Seattle. We’ll help you find dependable hotel or restaurant partners to enhance your trip and secure your seats for the show.

Navigate with confidence: search for dates, artists, and events at The Showbox venues, and remember to check venue-specific details for seating configurations, entry policies, and accessibility options. If you’re ever unsure, think of us as your friend in the business—reliable, straightforward, and here to help you get the tickets you want without the fuss.
