Who ya gonna call to join you for a free screening of Ghostbusters on Wednesday, July 15?! Come on out to the lawn of the Long Center when Do512 and Alamo Drafthouse present Austin Sound & Cinema with music from Latasha Lee & the Blackties followed by Ghostbusters on the big screen. The fun starts around 6 p.m.

–> What to Bring: Arrive early go get a good spot. The Long Center lawn provides plenty of room to play around with the kids before everything starts to help them from getting antsy. Bring games or a ball to throw around if you’d like! Attendees are welcome to bring folding chairs (but will have to sit toward the back), blankets and personal coolers with non-alcoholic beverages. Please do not bring pets, glass containers or alcohol.
The event is absolutely free to attend! Parking at the Long Center garage costs $8 cash or credit. Click here for more parking info.
Parents, we totally understand that you might not want to keep the kids up late or they may be too young for the movie, but it’s certainly cool to come, picnic, enjoy the food trucks, the sights of the city, listen to some awesome local music and duck out early. Whatever works for your family.
