Seattle, WA venue guide
Check the Paramount Theatre bag policy with an official source, then plan your entrances, parking, and dining in Seattle, WA. Confirm event-specific entry rules before you go.
Bag policy
Large bags are discouraged; they are allowed only after a full bag search, which slows entry—arrive early if bringing one. Some artists impose a no-bag policy that the venue must honor. Walk-through metal detectors and bag inspections are used at entry.
Entrances
Corner of 9th Avenue and Pine Street. Designated accessible entrance is on Pine Street at 9th Avenue (ask ushers/security outside). Entry uses a metal detector then ticket barcode scan. Venue box offices open 90 minutes before showtime; Will Call opens with the box office. For many Broadway/accessible arrivals, front doors open about one hour before showtime. Line-up for Paramount events starts on Pine Street going east toward Boren on the theatre side.

STG’s guest FAQ does not publish a standing concert-merchandise map for the Paramount. The Friends of The Paramount booth in the lobby rents binoculars (ushers can direct). The Seattle Theatre Group Archive in the Paramount Tower (Suites 401–402; Tuesdays 10 a.m.–2 p.m.) offers posters and memorabilia for sale to the public; ask ushers on show night about any tour merchandise tables.
