Climate Pledge Arena

The Climate Pledge Arena

Climate Pledge Arena is a transformational project. It is the most significant private investment ever made in Pacific Northwest sports and entertainment history. In partnership, Oak View Group, the Seattle Kraken, and the City of Seattle set out together to complete this project.

Climate Pledge Arena acknowledges that they are on the homelands of the Coast Salish peoples, who continue to steward these lands and waters as they have since time immemorial. They recognize Washington’s tribal nations and Native organizations, who actively create, shape and contribute to our thriving communities.

Climate Pledge Arena is committed to doing their part to engage with, and amplify the voices of, Native peoples and tribes.

Seattle Arena Company operates Climate Pledge Arena and is a division of Oak View Group. Oak View Group is a global sports and entertainment company founded by Tim Leiweke and Irving Azoff in 2015. OVG is focused on being a positive disruption to business as usual in the sports, live entertainment, and hospitality industries and currently has eight divisions across five global offices (Los Angeles, New York, London, Philadelphia, and Toronto).
