Lights, camera, and plenty of action under the stars! St. Louis Park's beloved summer tradition, Movies in the Park, is rolling out the red carpet once again, treating residents to a stellar lineup of sequels and crowd-pleasers—all for the delightful price of zero dollars. Yes, you read that right: pack your blankets and chairs, because outdoor movie nights are here to stay, and they’ve come with a bang.

Announced on the official City of St. Louis Park social media page, the event invites families, couples, and solo cinephiles alike to grab their own snacks and snag a spot on the grass for a night of cinematic magic. Starting with "Inside Out 2" at Ainsworth Park on August 28 at 8:15 p.m., the city aims to quickly connect the community with these fun-filled evenings.

But it doesn't stop with just emotional rollercoasters for the brain. The schedule includes "Moana 2," which will be charming at Aquila Park on September 5 at 7:30 p.m., promising to be a wave-maker. Following suit, "Sonic the Hedgehog 3" zooms into Browndale Park on September 12 at 7:30 p.m., sure to be an electrifying experience for fans and newcomers of the blue blur. Capping off the month, "Wicked" will defy gravity at Wolfe Park on September 19, at 7:30 p.m., potentially bringing both musical die-hards and friendly witches into the fold.

Put on by St. Louis Park Community Education, the series is touted as a multi-generational draw, a testament to the city's commitment to fostering community ties through accessible entertainment. "Movies in the Park is SO BACK...and this line up is really powerful!" proclaims the social media announcement, setting the stage for a month-long escapade into imagination and togetherness under the Minnesota sky. These events are expected not only to delight but also to seamlessly weave together a tapestry of community engagement and shared memories. Don't miss out on these evenings to catch a flick and make some friends; after all, movies and parks go together like popcorn and butter—just remember to bring your own.
