The Cathedral City Parks and Community Events Commission (PACE), in partnership with the Mary Pickford Theatre, presents the return of the “Free Summer Kids Movie Series” happening every Friday at 11:00 a.m. starting June 14, 2024, through August 2, 2024. Doors open at 10:30 a.m. The film series offers free admission to see a different movie geared towards kids each Friday morning at the Mary Pickford Theatre in Downtown Cathedral City.
The Cathedral City Parks and Community Events Commission will be offering free water and a small popcorn for the first 100 kids at each event during the eight-week period. The cost for this participation is $800 from the FY 2023-2024 PACE Small Events Budget, which was approved by the City Council at the regular meeting on April 24, 2024.
Two hundred free books will be available at every movie donated by the Read With Me Volunteer Programs. A book will also be read by the Cathedral City Library before every movie.
Seating is limited and residents can pick up the free passes at the door inside the Mary Pickford Theatre. Those without a Priority Line Pass may still attempt to attend but will be placed in a standby line. Once those with Priority Line Passes are admitted, standby attendees will be admitted if seats are still available.
