This year, for the upcoming Friday May 9th 2025 Mariners vs. Blue Jays game at T-Mobile Park in Seattle, there is a new campaign by Seattle hospitality/tourism-oriented businesses and restaurants, called “Open Arms For Our Canadian Friends”
We love our Canadian neighbors. And we regret how our federal government is treating you. We wish we could change what happens in the other Washington.What we can do is show you our thanks for being here. So, we’re taking the Canadian dollar at par — marking 30% off your tab to account for the exchange rate. It’s our way of saying, “We’re glad you’re here, and we’re on your side.”
Redeem your discount by showing valid Canadian identification (driver’s license, passport, etc.). Check with each participating business as eligibility may vary.
This targeted set of discounts is noteworthy for Canadians who were already planning to – or had not been thinking of – going to visit Seattle (e.g. attending the Mariners vs. Blue Jays game) this upcoming May 9-11 weekend.
