FAQs:
Do I have to purchase tickets in advance?
What about inclement weather? The walk will occur rain or shine. We ask that you check the weather forecast and dress accordingly if inclement weather is predicted. In cases of high winds, snow or impassable roadways, you will be notified in advance and the event will be rescheduled.
Is it lit? The pathways will have luminaries, but feel free to bring your own flashlight or lantern for additional visibility!
Are tickets refundable? All ticket sales are final.
Is this suitable for children? This is a 21+ only event.
Can I bring my dog? Happy to have Fido – please keep them on leash, and make sure that they play nice with other pooches!
Is the path wheelchair and stroller accessible? Unfortunately, no. While the main road and loop trail around the Arboretum are wheelchair friendly, the trails make it difficult.
Where do I check in? Washington Park Arboretum, 2300 Arboretum Drive East, Seattle, WA 98122. Check in at the information desk located in the Graham Visitors Center.
Is there public parking available nearby? There are multiple parking lots for free near the Visitors Center. On a busy day these can fill early! We also recommend taking public transportation and/or using resources such as Uber, Lyft or bike share programs. We are about a 20 minute walk for the UW Light Rail Station. Specific parking and public transportation directions will be included in the meeting location details after purchasing tickets.
How can I contact the organizer with any questions? Contact tramtour@uw.edu
Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event? No, we can check the manifest online.
Is my registration fee or ticket transferrable? Sure!
Is it ok if the name on my ticket or registration doesn’t match the person who attends? Not a problem
