The commission works to bring stakeholders together to bid on and host sporting events that have a positive social and economic impact, positioning Seattle as a top sports destination.
The Seattle Sports Commission serves as a resource for professional sports teams, university athletic departments, sports venues, youth sports organizations, and event organizers interested in the Seattle market. By joining the Chamber, the organization aims to strengthen connections with the greater Seattle region to further their pursuit and hosting of impactful sporting events.
In addition to serving as a resource for those in the sports industry, the Sports Commission also hosts signature events that engage and enhance the community through sports. The upcoming Region Ready Summit on April 22 will bring together members from various sectors in greater Seattle to discuss hosting major sporting events such as the FIFA World Cup 2026. This event provides an opportunity for attendees to learn about upcoming events and contribute input on creating successful sports events that will have long-lasting effects on the region.
