About Yakima Valley Sundome

Yakima Valley Sundome opened in 1990 and is located at State Fair Park in Yakima, Washington. Owned and operated by the Central Washington State Fair Association through State Fair Park, the arena seats approximately 7,000 to 8,000 guests depending on the event configuration, with layouts that can change for concerts, flat shows, exhibitions, and other large indoor events.

The SunDome is known as the largest indoor arena in Central Washington and the primary large-event venue for the Yakima Valley region. Its enclosed, climate-controlled design allows year-round events regardless of weather, while its flexible floor supports concerts across genres, motorized events, horse events, car shows, trade and consumer shows, family entertainment, graduations, and community events.

As a distinctive domed structure within the Central Washington State Fair complex, Yakima Valley Sundome plays a key role during the fair and throughout the year as a regional gathering place for major indoor events.

Location & Transportation

Yakima Valley Sundome is located at 1301 S. Fair Ave, Yakima, WA 98901 — on the State Fair Park grounds in Yakima.

Driving and Parking: Most attendees arrive by car. The venue sits within the 120-acre State Fair Park complex off Fair Avenue, with ample on-site parking available across the grounds. Parking fills more heavily during fair season and for large headline events, so arriving early is especially helpful on high-demand dates.

Transit: Yakima Transit operates bus service in the city, though service to the fairgrounds area is limited. For many events, transit works best when planned carefully around current routes and schedules.

Rideshare: Rideshare drop-off and pickup are available at the fairgrounds. After larger events, expect some wait time as crowds leave the property and vehicles move through the surrounding area.

Nearby Accommodation: Lodging is available throughout Yakima, including several hotels clustered near the I-82 corridor. Downtown Yakima is also a short drive from the venue and offers convenient access for visitors staying in the city.

Venue Navigation

Yakima Valley Sundome has a flexible indoor arena layout, with a domed bowl, event floor, and surrounding fixed and portable seating that can be adjusted based on the show or event. Understanding the configuration before you arrive helps you choose the right seats and move through the fairgrounds more efficiently.

Entrances and Access: Guests enter through the SunDome's main entrances on the State Fair Park grounds. Entry points and gates can vary by event and may be adjusted during the Central Washington State Fair, when the broader fairgrounds are active.

Seating Levels: The arena uses a flexible floor with surrounding fixed and portable grandstand seating. Concerts may use floor seating close to the stage, while flat shows, exhibitions, and other events can use different layouts based on the event footprint.

Accessibility: Accessible seating and parking are available at the venue, helping guests with mobility needs attend events at the SunDome more comfortably.

How Much Do Tickets to Yakima Valley Sundome Cost?

Yakima Valley Sundome ticket prices vary widely depending on the type of event, the artist or team, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from community and family events to headline concerts.

For concerts and headline events, tickets are often approximately $35 to $125 or more depending on the act, seat location, and overall demand. Floor seats and lower-level areas near the stage usually command higher prices, especially for popular performers.

For flat shows, family entertainment, and community events, tickets can start as low as about $15 to $40. These events often provide strong value for groups and families, with pricing shaped by the type of event and the available seating setup.

Buying earlier generally provides better seat selection and pricing for high-demand events. As inventory shrinks and the event date approaches, the best remaining seats can become more expensive, especially for headline concerts and major fair-season programming.

Yakima Valley Sundome Seating Guide

Yakima Valley Sundome uses a flexible arena setup, so the seating layout is worth reviewing before buying. Depending on the event, the floor may be used for concert seating, general admission, flat-show space, exhibition layouts, or other configurations, with fixed and portable grandstand seating surrounding the main floor.

Best Seats at Yakima Valley Sundome

  • Best value: Upper and farther grandstand sections are typically the most affordable areas, offering a broad view of the event at a lower entry price.
  • Closest to the action: Floor seating placed closest to the stage is the strongest option for concert configurations when proximity is the priority.

The map lets you compare sections side by side, check row depth and distance from the stage, and see real-time pricing for what's currently available — all before committing to a purchase.

Can I See Where My Seats Are?

Getting Ready for Your Yakima Valley Sundome Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a fairgrounds venue where parking areas, entrances, and event crowds can vary by date.

  • Download your tickets before you leave. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the entrance without needing a signal.
  • Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
  • Arrive early. Large events can create heavier parking demand and longer entry lines, and extra time is especially useful during the Central Washington State Fair.
  • Wear the right footwear. The venue sits on a large fairgrounds complex, so expect some walking from parking areas to entrances. Supportive shoes make the arrival and departure experience easier.
  • Dress in layers. The arena is enclosed and climate-controlled, but you may be crossing the fairgrounds before and after the event, so dress for outdoor conditions as well.
  • Build extra time into your transit plan. Parking and entry lines build for larger events, and fair-season crowds can add more time to the arrival process.
  • Know your entrance. Your ticket may list an assigned gate or entrance, and checking it before arriving can save time when multiple entry points are in use.
  • Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
