Movies in the Park at Berkley Riverfront

Movies in the Park returns to Berkley Riverfront Park on Tuesday, October 20, as part of a free outdoor screening series run by Port KC. The park sits right along the Kansas City riverfront, so you're watching outside with the city around you rather than inside a theater. This particular screening is one of four Tuesday nights in the series, and the whole run is built around a Halloween theme, with a different film showing each night.

Since it's an outdoor setup, you'll want to bring your own gear. The organizers encourage everyone to bring blankets, lawn chairs, and snacks, and they make it clear that outside food and drink are allowed, so you can pack whatever you like and settle in for the evening. It's the kind of night where you bring a couple of chairs, a big blanket to share, and a bag of something to munch on while the movie plays.

Because the series runs across four Tuesday evenings, you're not limited to just this one date. If you can't make it on the 20th, there are other screenings in the same Halloween-inspired program, each with its own film. If you're in the mood for a few nights of outdoor cinema, you can pick and choose which ones fit your schedule.

The screening starts at 7 PM at Berkley Riverfront Park, 950 Riverfront Dr., Kansas City, MO, and admission is free.
