Going to the movies is a summertime tradition, especially under a beautiful evening sky in Colorado.
Most are free, and the others are reasonably priced. Show times are typically at dusk — around 8:30 p.m. Many offer family-friendly activities beforehand, so get there early. (Plus, the early bird gets the best seats. Don’t forget to bring chairs and/or blankets.)
And, if you don’t pack your own picnic or snacks, most offer concessions for sale — everything from the usual movie snacks to beer and wine for adults. Here’s what’s flickering in the dark this summer …
