Summer is here and that means summer fun! The Free Friday Flicks outdoor summer movie series put on by Backyard Movie Parties is back and moving from Hoover’s Veterans Park to Railroad Park in downtown Birmingham this year.
Movies this year are:
“Encanto” on June 2
“Drumline” on June 9
“The Princess & the Frog” on June 16
“Minions: The Rise of Gru” on June 23
“Back to the Future” on June 30.
People are invited to set up blankets and chairs in the grassy area at Railroad Park near the main pavilion to watch movies on an outdoor screen each Friday night in June. The movie images are 30 feet wide and will be shown on a 38-foot-wide screen.
Each movie is scheduled to start at dusk. The sun sets between 7:53 and 8:01 p.m. during the weeks the movies are scheduled. Folks are encouraged to come early — around 6:30 p.m. — and have picnics in the park prior to the show.
