Smith Tower Observatory Admission Ticket
Overview
Step into the past with updated historical exhibits, now featuring a fascinating collection of Smith Typewriters—an homage to the Tower’s namesake legacy. Follow your favorite characters through immersive audio/visual displays and interactive elements as you journey through over a century of history.
Make your way up to the 35th Floor Observatory, where sweeping 360-degree views of Seattle await on the open-air deck. Then settle in for prohibition-inspired craft cocktails and shareable plates with friends or loved ones.
