New Orleans Recreation Development Commission Spring 2024 “Movies in the Park” Series

City of New Orleans

Last week the City of New Orleans announced that beginning this week, the New Orleans Recreation Development (NORD) Commission will kick off the Spring 2024 season of “Movies in the Park,” featuring family-friendly, outdoor movie screenings across NORD parks and playgrounds.

The Spring 2024 season begins Friday, March 1, with “The Marvels” at A.L. Davis Park, located at 2600 LaSalle St. The rain site for this event is Lyons Recreation Center, located at 624 Louisiana Ave.

  
“Movies in the Park” are fun and safe evenings that bring community members together from all ages for a free event. It is also a great way to relax outdoors during the spring months. Concessions are available at select events, but moviegoers are encouraged to bring picnics, lawn chairs and blankets. 

 
Participants under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult. No pets, alcoholic beverages, illegal drugs, firearms, weapons, smoking or outdoor cooking are allowed during the event. Movies begin at dusk, and each film screening has an alternate, indoor location in case of inclement weather.
