It’s no surprise we’re big fans of shopping locally — and Seattle Explored wants to help reward Seattleites who support small businesses and artists. How? We’re glad you asked. The free Seattle Explored digital passport program allows both locals + visitors to take advantage of the city’s unique businesses and experiences.

Choose your passport

Here’s a sneak peek at what each passport offers:

  • Seattle Restored | Now available | Explore window art installations, art residencies, pop-ups + small businesses in walkable Seattle neighborhoods from Belltown to Pioneer Square — and beyond.
  • Good Drinks | Now available | Use this handy guide to discover a new favorite cocktail, mocktail, or locally-produced wine or beer.
  • Seattle Made | Launching July 2024 | Learn about products made right here in Seattle — from whiskey to chocolate to bicycles. Check out factory tours, workshops, classes, and more — all open to the public.

How it works

  1. Download the passport.
  2. Check in when you visit a participating business.
  3. Visit participating local retailers, artists, bars, and restaurants to earn points + redeem them for rewards.

All you need is a smartphone and a sense of adventure.
