Climate Change Arena: Home to the Storm and the Kraken
The city's newest professional sports and entertainment venue is situated in the heart of Seattle City Center, Climate Pledge Arena. Touted as the most sustainable arena in the world, it serves as the home of the four-time WNBA champion Seattle Storm and Seattle’s first NHL team, the Kraken. Since opening in October 2021, the arena has prioritized sustainability, incorporating features like water bottle filling stations, solar panels, and the innovative “Rain to Rink” system, which transforms collected rainwater into ice for the hockey rink.
