The Clink is gone in a wink. Just in time to hype its new affiliate name in front of a national TV audience watching NFL Thursday Night Football, CenturyLink Inc., is renaming the home of the Seahawks and Sounders as Lumen Field.
Lumen Technologies, LLC became a wholly-owned affiliate of CenturyLink, Inc. in September, and the re-brand debuts with the Seahawks-Cardinals game at 5:20 p.m.
The change in awaited approval later Thursday by the Washington State Public Stadium Authority, the state public corporation owner of the stadium.
Through a shared vision and commitment to serving the Seattle community, we are proud to enter a new era of world-class sports and entertainment with Lumen Field, said Chuck Arnold, president of the Seahawks and its corporate owner, First & Goal Inc. For nearly two decades, the stadium has made its mark as a premier Seattle venue, and a place for the community to experience thrilling victories, establish sacred traditions, and witness unforgettable moments together. We are excited to build upon that legacy and experience amazing things at Lumen Field for years to come.
