What To Do in Seattle This Weekend

By , About.com GuideMarch 11, 2010

Follow me on:

A few suggestions for your weekend:

Friday is the opening of Un Prophete ("A Prophet"), the film that won the Grand Prix at last year's Cannes Film Festival, at the Harvard Exit. Critics have been comparing this crime epic to The Godfather. Don't miss it.

Saturday the Seattle Symphony welcomes guest conductor James Gaffigan (San Francisco Symphony) for a program of Menelssohn, Hayden, and Mozart.

Also Saturday, the Seattle Center kicks off the Irish Festival. Come enjoy Irish music, dancing, movies, and free "how Irish am I" family tree analysis. You don't even have to wear green.

Sunday is "Pi Day" (3.14 is pi for you non-mathematically-inclined) around the world and, especially, at Seattle's High 5 Pie. Get .14 off any three pies at Fuel Coffee. As if you needed an excuse for pie!
