Fans can catch a train on Sunday in Kent to attend the Sounders game at CenturyLink Field.

A special train will serve Sounders FC soccer fans attending Sunday’s season-opening match at 6:30 p.m. against the New England Revolution, and run also for select Sounders FC weekend games this season.

Sound Transit’s Sounder train on Sunday, March 8, will stop in Kent at 4:31 p.m. The fare is $3.50 each way.

Stadium-bound trains from the south will depart Lakewood at 3:45 p.m. Return trains depart King Street Station 35 minutes after the match.

A complete schedule of Sounder service to select Sounders FC matches this season is available at soundtransit.org/Schedules/Event-services/Sounders-FC.

Special Sounder service is in addition to regular Link light rail service to and from CenturyLink Field. Link runs every 10 minutes on Sunday and serves 13 stations in downtown Seattle, SODO, Beacon Hill, Rainier Valley, Tukwila and SeaTac. Link’s Stadium and International District stations are a short walk from CenturyLink Field.

Many ST Express buses also drop off passengers near the stadium. Link and ST Express bus schedules are available at soundtransit.org/Schedules.

Regular fares apply for all Sound Transit services. Getting an ORCA card is a great way to skip lines at ticket vending machines. Cards only cost $5 for adults, plus whatever amount a rider chooses to load in the card’s E-purse or the cost of a pass that is good for unlimited transit trips. ORCA works on trains, buses and ferries throughout the region. More information is available at orcacard.com.
