The lineup of all-ages movies includes “Matilda,” “Black Panther,” and “High School Musical.” Guests can bring blankets to view the screenings so arrive early to grab a good spot. Chair rentals are also available for $5. The movies are free but are on a first-come, first-served basis so give yourself enough time to secure space and snacks. Concessions for popcorn, candy, ice cream and other treats are available for purchase.
The movies start at 7:30 pm and if you want to eat something more substantial than snacks, you can order a to-go box at a Gallagher Way pop-up eatery. All movies are complimentary but guests have the option of choosing a VIP ticket with reserved seating, an alcoholic (each film features a specialty cocktail) or non-alcoholic drink, snacks and a sweet treat from Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream for $33.
