The atmosphere was great. The food options were extensive with many options close by. The in game entertainment was fun to watch and kept us in our seats. Bathrooms were clean, and the ability to get to the game via transit was very helpful
We spent over $1000 to take the kids to a Kraken game. The hockey was great but the whole experience was miserable. Every second the puck was not in play was filled with loud, booming noise and artificial hype. A drunk behind us spent the time shouting obscenities, only to be eclipsed by a kid behind him with the most piercing scream I have ever heard. I would pay to avoid such a bad outing. To think we dipped into the kids' college fund makes it worse. Never again.
Need to change up the music like most hockey venues do. I know organ music of the past is not the thing but the loud constant head banging music is not for everyone. The 10 year old and middle age persons we were with felt the same. Just gives some of us a headache and can’t wait to leave
Beautiful arena but they gave our group from NY a hard time on the size of our purses as we entered the arena. Lockers were located several blocks away. This was an inconvenience especially since it was our first time to the state and we carried our passports with us in those purses and now would be out of our sight. Changes need to be made
Loved the energy, and effort put in by the organizers & the team.
My Daughter and I attended our 2nd game this past weekend, and had fantastic seats. The crowd was enthusiastic and LOUD! But unlike other Seattle sports venues, the crowd was also courteous towards their fellow fans. We look forward to attending another game soon!
Great time the energy was amazing. Can’t wait to do it again
Climate Pledge Arena is a great setting for a hockey game. The Kraken are a great team, really fun to watch. The whole atmosphere is spectacular!
Doors opened late due to the meeting the team going over in time. Once entered, the "event"it's self was very disappointing. The players acted as if they were forced to eb there. Little to no effort and attitudes were not great. For being a fan based event, I would have expected more effort to be made by the players, production and management. The whole thing felt rushed, it was over quickly. We were left disappointed and hoping for more. Hoping next year they focus more on making this a true fan event and the players learn to show appreciation and not act like they are being forced to participate in something "below"them.
Our family had a great time, ticket prices were super affordable, the players were impressive and funny, and it was great to see how excited it made our kids!
