Sundance Cinemas

Sundance Cinemas came to Seattle's U District earlier this year, giving movie goers an experience unlike any other theater in town. A combination of stellar film programming and exciting filmmaker screenings make this newly-renovated space the perfect place in which to get a dose of the arts while enjoying cocktails, beer, wine and freshly-made snacks (served by local vendors). All seats are for patrons 21 years and over, and visitors will delight in the plush, reserved seats and sophisticated decor that incorporates wood products from the northwest with hazelnut tree twigs, a unique box office wood slab and handmade end tables. Upstairs, an art gallery rotates works by Seattle artists, and a comfy lounge area provides a space to hang out before or after one's show.
