Don't pay extra money for the "elite experience". The view is amazing and you get access to it with the less pricey tickets. The extra perks involved with the more expensive elite experience ticket… Full review by Exploration475866

Do I need to purchase a ticket to go have a bite and a drink at Sky View Cafe & Bar? I did not see any info on website and Microsoft Edge said for Sky View Bar I do not need one but for the Colombia Tower Club and Charlotte Restaurant & Lounge I do.
Where can we park for our Skyview Observatory visit. I understand that our parking is validated......what does that mean? Discount? Free? Valet? Please advise.
A:
I have no idea where to park, we took an Uber. Parking is limited downtown
I am a senior and have a disability (non wheelchair). Where would I find convenient/close parking to the observatory to limit my walking distance? I've heard the one with underground at the Sky Center will not accommodate some SUV's and you risk getting damage to your vehicles because the spaces are extremely cramped. Interested in a SAFE and Convenient location. Thank you.
A:
There is a small public parking lot right across the street from the building entrance. It has four (I think) handicapped spaces. We've found one available on both our visits.
Hi, I want to buy 2 tickets for my friends who have just been married and are moving to Portland, at one point they will visit Seattle, if I buy them tickets for a date, and they can’t make that date, can they change it to a date that will suit them?
A:
Yes you can, as long as the ticket prices remain the same. I believe they have fixed the price for the remainder of this year. So the tickets should be valid till then.
