About: Movies in the Park is a series of free films brought to you by the Austin Parks Foundation and the Alamo Drafthouse. Each year, APF and the Drafthouse bring you totally free movies right in downtown Austin at Republic Square Park. Austin residents and visitors bring their blanket or lawn chairs (and often a picnic dinner!) for a fun and relaxing evening under the beautiful Austin night sky.
Dogs, picnics, and lawn chairs are welcome. Alcoholic beverages, glass and styrofoam are not permitted in the park. We do provide recycling bins, but ask that you help us out by packing out all of your own trash. Smoking is also prohibited in the park, per city law.
The Pink Bra Tour is more than just a fundraiser, it’s a collective of athletes embarking on a journey across the country with one purpose; to join forces with the community and raise awareness of breast cancer and proactive healthcare. https://vimeo.com/54543738
