Peoria is adding a dash of spooky fun to its family-friendly offerings this October, with the Peoria Sports Complex opening its gates for the Fall Family Movie Night set to chill and thrill attendees of all ages. According to the official City of Peoria news release, the event is slated for Saturday, October 12 promising a night under the stars peppered with more than just movie magic.
The centerpiece of the evening is a free screening of the cult classic "The Nightmare Before Christmas," aiming to start at 7 p.m., but before Jack Skellington can sweep audiences off to Halloween Town, the gates will welcome guests from 5:30 p.m., offering a plethora of pre-show activities which include food trucks ready to dispense a variety of culinary treats and drinks, bounce houses that promise to send little ones into fits of joy, games to engage the competitively spirited, and a costume contest for those who fancy donning their October alter-egos early.
For those thinking cost might be a specter at this event, fear not. The City of Peoria assures that both attendance and parking will not demand a single penny. All the entertainment, bursting with family appeal, is crafted to turn the Peoria Sports Complex into a veritable playground that dovetails delight with the spirit of the season.
