Watch "The Force Awakens" Under the Stars in Detroit

Calling all Star Wars fans! This week you have the chance to watch the latest Star Wars movie under the stars in Detroit. New Center Park in Detroit will be showing Episode VII: The Force Awakens this Wednesday, July 27th as part of their ongoing Wednesday Night Movies in the park series.

For those of you that don't know, New Center Park is a park featuring an open air theatre in the heart of Detroit's New Center area. Movie goers are invited to bring a blanket or chair and come watch movies for free at this beautiful park. The gates open at 8 p.m. on movie nights and the film will start at sun down, between 9 and 9:30 p.m. The park also features a bar and grill with soft drinks, adult beverages, and everything from candy to hamburgers. Since there is food served on site and the movie is free, the park asks that you please do not bring outside food and beverages in with you. Instead, support the park and their great events by making a purchase from the bar & grill.

New Center Park shows movies every Wednesday and Friday throughout the summer. In case of inclement weather, keep an eye on the park's Facebook page to find out if the show will still go on. New Center Park is located at the corner of Second Avenue and West Grand Blvd. For more info on New Center Park's movie nights and to find out about other events coming to the park, click here.
