Celebrate the 30th anniversary of Sleepless in Seattle with a free screening of the iconic film, sponsored by the Space Needle.

Rated PG

Runtime: 1 hour 45 min

Celebrate 30 years of this wonderfully romantic comedy about two people drawn together by destiny. Sam Baldwin, a widowed father who, thanks to the wiles of his worried son, becomes a reluctant guest on a radio call-in show. He's an instant hit with thousands of female listeners who deluge his Seattle home with letters of comfort. Meanwhile, inspired in equal parts by Sam's story and by classic Hollywood romance, writer Annie Reed becomes convinced that it's her destiny to meet Sam. There are just two problems: Annie's engaged to someone else and Sam doesn't know yet that they're made for each other.
