Parking is available at the event site at a cost of $10 per day. Players can prepay for weekend passes on Friday for $25 that will cover all three days. Please stick to designated pedestrian walkways and paths at all times and be aware that this is a working pier.

Pier 91 is also accessible by Seattle Metro bus. Take bus number 19, 24 or 33 to Smith Cove Cruise Terminal 91. Request the stop on the Magnolia Bridge at Terminal 91.

Once you enter through the staffed gate, walk 10 minutes to the Cruise Terminal at far south end of the Pier. Use caution while walking as this is a working pier. Buses run about every 30 minutes.
