Movies with a downtown view
Friday • June 13 | Friday • July 18 | Friday • August 29
Downtown Definitely Events is bringing back this popular event for three nights this summer at Parcel 5. All screenings are free, family-friendly, and open to the public. Each night kicks off at 7 PM with pre-movie fun and games, followed by a fan-voted film shown on a giant 18-foot-wide, 10-foot-high LED video wall with high-quality sound. Attendees can grab a bite to eat from local food trucks and enjoy classic movie concession items. ASL interpreters will be present, and all films include closed captions. Bring your chairs and blankets and settle in for a great night of outdoor cinema in downtown Rochester.
