Planning dinner before Arrows In Action at The Vera Project? Pop-rock trio Arrows In Action bring their I Think We’ve Toured Here Before tour to The Vera Project at Seattle Center, with Good Boy Daisy and Seattle’s own Instant Crush. The night falls on Sunday, October 4, with doors at 6:00 PM. Grappa is 1.2 miles away by car in Queen Anne, about four minutes without traffic, and a table around 4:00 PM gives you time for an unhurried dinner first.

Plan your night around the show

Doors open at 6 PM on a Sunday and the show is all ages, so an early family dinner at Grappa and a four-minute drive to Seattle Center fit neatly together. Vera is all ages and alcohol-free, so younger fans are welcome and any wine belongs with dinner at Grappa beforehand. Before you leave, check the live route from Grappa to The Vera Project.
