Nothing says summer quite like a bucket of popcorn, a frosty soda, and a blockbuster movie. Lexingtonians have flocked to the Kentucky Theatre’s Summer Classics series for nearly 30 years, and this year’s lineup of 16 cinema masterpieces continues the tradition.
Beginning Wednesday, May 21, film fanatics can enjoy a specially selected movie every Wednesday at 1:30 p.m. and 7:15 p.m., with tickets starting at $6.50.
Tickets are on sale now, so find your favorite films and snag your seats. (City Editor Sam already has his tickets for Return of the Jedi on July 30.)
