Light Rail Opening Day Celebrations!

  • Date: 08/30/2024  

Celebrate the opening of light rail!

Ribbon Cutting (11:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.)
Starting at 11 a.m. at Lynnwood City Center Station, Sound Transit will kick off opening celebrations with a public ribbon-cutting event. After speeches by local leaders, the ribbon will officially be cut around 12:30 p.m., and riders will be welcomed onboard the new 1 Line Extension to Lynnwood for the very first time.

The Lynnwood City Center Station garage will be open for those planning to drive. Carpooling, biking, walking, or using transit options like Community Transit’s Swift Orange Line are encouraged.

Night Market (4:00 – 8:00 p.m.)
The celebration continues at each new station along the route in the form of a night market! Enjoy a range of events hosted by community groups at each new station. You’ll find everything from a bouncy house, food trucks, face painting, live music, giveaways and so much more. And don’t forget to play Discover. Stamp. Win! along the way!

Shoreline will have night markets at our two new stations.

Shoreline North/185th Street Station will be hosted by the North City Neighborhood Association.

Shoreline South/148th Street Station will be hosted by the Shoreline Chamber of Commerce
