As the summer winds down and September brings cooler evenings, there’s no better way to enjoy the season than with a magical movie under the stars. This month, Crosswinds families and neighbors can look forward to a whimsical night out at the September Movie in the Park, featuring WONKA—a film full of music, heart, and imagination that’s perfect for older kids and adults alike!
Event Details
Date: Thursday, September 5
Location: Steeplechase Park
Showtime: Movie begins at 8:00 PM (come early to grab your spot!)
Pack your blankets and lawn chairs and get ready for a cozy community evening. Whether you’ve seen the film or are discovering it for the first time, WONKA promises to dazzle with its story of how the world’s most famous chocolatier came to be.
What to Expect
Steeplechase Park will transform into an outdoor movie haven. A giant screen will light up the night sky, and the sound of laughter, music, and sweet storytelling will fill the air. Food trucks and local vendors will be on-site, offering tasty snacks and drinks, making it easy to treat yourself to movie munchies without packing a thing.
Perfect Evening for Older Kids & Adults
While WONKA is a family-friendly film, its magical storyline, musical numbers, and deeper themes make it a fantastic pick for tweens, teens, and adults, too. It’s the kind of movie that stirs your imagination and leaves you humming the tunes long after the credits roll.
Tips for an Unforgettable Movie Night
- Arrive Early to claim a good viewing spot and explore the park before the movie starts.
- Pack Smart: Bring along blankets, lawn chairs, and bug spray.
- Don’t Forget Snacks: Either bring your own goodies or plan to grab something from the food trucks.
- Bring a Flashlight or use your phone’s light for post-movie navigation.
