Sea-Tac Airport Will Serenade You

As if I didn’t love airports enough already, my Sea-Tac Airport has just found yet another way to win over my heart. Today was the kick-off date for the airport’s new pilot program in which local artists will perform four-hour sets outside security in the arrivals hall. Seriously though, going through security can be such a buzz kill so I think it’s a pretty great idea that travelers can exit security and be greeted with some sweet sounds. Concerts are scheduled weekly between the hours of 10AM and 4PM so you won’t have to be worried about being re-awoken by music at 7AM. I heard recently that Sea-Tac has been working closely with the Seattle Office of Film and Music to bring some freshness to our airport and while I haven’t seen anything myself since I last traveled, I think this is a great way to add onto one’s traveling experience.

Musicians – are you interested in your very own set at Sea-Tac? Submit your music here.
