What to Bring

Seating: A blanket or low beach chairs to sit on, so that you don’t obstruct the view for others.
Food and Drinks: While we encourage you to enjoy the food trucks, you may also bring your own food and beverages. Beer and wine are permitted, but please be responsible!
Costumes: Join in the fun by dressing up for the pre-show activities and movie watching.

Weather

If we need to postpone due to inclement weather, we will communicate through Eventbrite and through Dix Park Social Media Channels.

Location

The movie will be in Flowers Field, 2105 Umstead Drive.
The best park entrances to use are Hunt Drive off of Western Boulevard or Blair Drive off of Centennial Parkway.
Look for signs along Umstead Drive.

Parking

Parking is available in the four parking lots off of Umstead Drive.
Due to the high volume of people and limited parking, please carpool if possible.
Do not park in the grass – driving on tree roots damages the trees and we want to keep the 150 year old oaks around for as long as possible!

Restrooms

Port-a-johns are the only restroom facilities at the event site.

Dogs

Leashed, friendly dogs are welcome, but please use your best judgement to determine if your pooch will enjoy the show - and the dark.

COVID-19 Safety Reminders

Please stay home if you are sick!

The City of Raleigh has been forced to confront the potential dangers associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. The City’s Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Resources (PRCR) Department remains committed to providing high quality programming. However, in order to comply with guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and other federal, state, and local public health agencies, the PRCR Department has implemented additional safety precautions to ensure that program participants and other PRCR Department staff will have a fun, exceptional experience.

The contents of this document supplement applicable program policies (including Camp Policies and School-Based Program policies), the Program Registration Form, and the online registration for participants who registered through RecLink at parks.raleighnc.gov.

Other program participants, staff members, or administrators;

The personal belongings of program participants, staff members, or administrators;
