Arien Conley4 months agoI went to the Gothic Market they had noot too long ago and the idea of it was really good. It may be because I'm not a goth dommy mommy, but it just kind of lacked a certain feel to it. It mostly just felt like a gothic fashion show to subconsciously see who is more goth than anyone else. You basically payed to get in just to buy items being sold with prices that were really up there. Items I have actually bought for a dollar at Five Below around Valentine's Day were being marketed for almost $20 (each) with identical quality. I don't know, I've been to a handful of these so I'm no expert. But I think this one might have dropped the ball a little bit. Everyone looked great and were incredibly friendly. Just not my kind of go-to for shopping. Inflation hit smaller shops too somehow with delusional price expectations. The building itself, is pretty nice. It's a well built place and the staff there were really nice and patient with everybody in line to get in.
coachlunk Rubio2 years agoFirst time to see a ballet at this location. The performance was amazing. The atmosphere was very good. Seating was comfortable. It did get very warm after the intermission. Sugar cookies are delicious, as well as the cupcakes 🧁. Mixxed drinks were good. Will return for another event.

Cheok Tanga month agoThe place was easy to find. Parking garage rates across the street was expensive. It is located in Seattle, so you have to be very vigilant of your surrounding. On the weekend that I went to this place, two vendors either got stolen from or robbed of their belongings.
Louie de Coton7 months agoWe recently had an event in their exhibition hall for Winter Show. My review is my experience as a vendor. I was impressed how organized they were, loading was a breeze and on-time, the staff were so friendly, polite, and the venue was spotless. I loaded at their loading ramp. Since it was a big event, we had organized time window to show up. Their staff were so professional and we quickly got to loading spot. I parked across from the Seattle Center with tons of available parking space and easy to walk over for my event. I wish they had their own parking. At the end of event, loading was chaotic. The loading dock was crazy busy. Some people with smaller displays chose to park in front of the building (there is no parking) and quickly load their stuff. The line for that was long too. I decided to take my stuff to the garage. It was ok, just walked cross the street with our stuff. I hope my review help vendors!
