Outdoor Movies in the Park
Our Outdoor Movie Series has made a Spring Comeback!
Join the Great Neck Park District at our fun, family-friendly outdoor movie series. Movies are shown on our huge LED movie screen for residents to enjoy a night out.
Our new guidelines allow pre-registrants to walk into the park and sit in our socially-spaced circles. There are 25-30 circles available which accommodate a family/circle of up to (6) comfortably. Each designated spot is outlined into a "circle" spaced 8-10 ft. from one another, following social-distancing guidelines. Be sure to bring your own blanket and/or chair to sit on inside your designated area. Mask-wearing is encouraged if 6 ft. of social distancing cannot be maintained with guests outside of your "circle".
*Anyone who did not pre-register for our movie showing is NOT permitted to sit in the designated movie section. Those who have not pre-registered will kindly be asked to sit outside of the private section area, and continue to follow Park District rules.
The showings take place at Allenwood Park.
No food or beverages are sold at the event, however residents are encouraged to bring their own food/snacks.
Weather conditions may alter the showing. If it is cold/damp, you will drive into the park and stay in your car. Rain postpones event. Registrants will be notified in advance.
Restrooms are available.

But help arrives for the Princess in the form of renegade space pilot Lone Starr (Bill Pullman) and his half-man, half-dog partner, Barf (John Candy).

The Croods: A New Age
Searching for a safer habitat, the prehistoric Crood family discovers an idyllic, walled-in paradise that meets all of its needs. Unfortunately, they must also learn to live with the Bettermans -- a family that's a couple of steps above the Croods on the evolutionary ladder. As tensions between the new neighbors start to rise, a new threat soon propels both clans on an epic adventure that forces them to embrace their differences, draw strength from one another, and survive together.
Stars: Nicolas Cage, Emma Stone, Ryan Reynolds
