Lynnwood Event Center is on the North side of the Seattle area. We have the whole first floor, including nearly 6000 square shaku of training space.
Thanks to Seattle’s new light rail system, getting there is easy – Just one direct light rail ride. No connections needed.
We plan to block out some group hotel deals in the area, including shuttles to and from the event. Hotel details coming soon.
