What to do in Seattle: Location of the 2020 Equine Symposium and Convention Hosted by USPC and the Northwest Region By Ryder Black, NYB member and Seattle native

The 2020 Annual Pony Club Symposium is January 29th to February 2nd in Seattle, WA at the SeaTac International Airport Hilton Convention Center. An exciting and vibrant city awaits you! Come explore Seattle, before, during, and after the Symposium. Near the convention center are several exciting and unique opportunities, such as the iFly indoor skydiving gym, or the world famous Museum of Flight.

Interested in seeing the city? The key to a wonderful trip in downtown Seattle is the Link Light Rail station directly across the street from the convention center, a $2.75 fare can take you as far north as Seattle’s historic International District or even all the way to the beautiful University of Washington campus. A few stops closer though, lies Pioneer Square, the heart of downtown Seattle. From the Pioneer Square station, Pike Place Market, Seattle Aquarium, and the Seattle Great Wheel are all within minimal walking distance. Be sure to see the Gum Wall at Pike Place, and don’t forget to grab a pic with Mt. Rainier!

To the north lies the quintessential Seattle landmark, the Space Needle as well as Seattle Center, the location of the 1962 World's Fair, that drew 2.3 million people in attendance. Seattle Center is easily accessible by the Westlake Light Rail station to the historic Seattle Monorail.

While there, be sure to check out the Chihuly Glass Museum! Also nearby is the Museum of Pop Culture, and Musical International Fountain.

Feeling hungry? Get ready for some of the best burgers you’ve ever had at Dick’s Drive in, a Seattle establishment, with various locations around the city. When you’re ready for something sweet, head over to Cupcake Royale, easily the best cupcake in the Pacific Northwest. Finally, make sure to check out Starbucks Reserve, the new and exclusive experience from the coffee company you already know and love.

Seattle is looking forward to hosting USPC at the 2020 Equine Symposium and convention, see you there!
