PRIVATE EVENTS

GATHER AT SEATTLE'S ORIGINAL SKYSCRAPER

Smith Tower is available for private events accommodating up to 80 people. With two distinctive spaces of The Observatory and The Lookout lounge and deck, this truly unique and historic setting is perfect for receptions, special events, celebrations and one-of-a-kind gatherings with friends, family or co-workers.

The experience begins the minute your guests enter the building and enjoy being whisked up to the 22nd-floor Lookout lounge and deck or the 35th-floor Observatory in an original 1914 Otis copper and brass elevator. Whether your guests are Seattle natives or visiting from afar, your event will be one to remember with breathtaking views and a gorgeous ambience.
