Culture
Seattle is home to people from all over the world, providing visitors and new residents unique experiences they won’t find anywhere else.
-
- Music: From Nirvana to Macklemore, Seattle is known as a hub for great music. There are plenty of local bands, concert venues big and small, and award-winning radio stations to keep you in the groove at all times.
- Coffee: Though the latte-craze was nationalized through Seattle’s own Starbucks Coffee Co., it’s the local roasters who bring depth to this coffee culture. Enjoy a long conversation and some local art while sipping on your barista’s newest concoction.
- Cuisine: Take a walk around Seattle’s famous Pike Place Market and you’ll immediately recognize the city’s passion for fresh, local food with international influences. Whether you’re into raw oysters, grilled salmon or a fresh berry parfait, Seattle has grub that satisfies.
What to do
With old-growth forests, pristine glaciers, dominant mountains, and massive green rivers just minutes away, Seattleites are never bored with their outdoor playground. Locals and visitors alike take advantage of Seattle’s parks and forests to ski, snowboard, sled or snowshoe in the winter, and camp, hike, bike, paddleboard, kayak, and sail in the summer.
If you’re tired of getting rained on or need a break from the action, Seattle has independent movie theaters (and a world famous International Film Festival in May), live theater, ballet, symphony, and other live talent to woo you.
With the sheer variety of things to do and see in Seattle, you may decide to buy a good rain jacket—the locals never use umbrellas— settle in with your cappuccino, and stay forever.
