North City Hosts Free Outdoor Movie Screening of Disney’s Finding Nemo

North City is making a splash this summer with a free outdoor movie screening of Disney’s Finding Nemo, bringing families and movie lovers together for an evening under the stars. You can enjoy games, hands-on activities, and character meet-and-greets before Nemo, Marlin, and Dory swim across the big screen.

The Perfect Family Evening Setup

The early start time gives families plenty of opportunity to settle in and enjoy the pre-movie activities without feeling rushed.

Character meet-and-greets add that special Disney magic that makes outdoor movie nights feel more like events than just screenings, while games and hands-on activities keep kids engaged during the wait.

Complimentary popcorn removes one less thing to worry about, and the variety of food options from North City’s eateries means everyone can find something they’ll enjoy.

From A Lo Fresco’s internationally inspired bowls and wraps to Buona Forchetta‘s fresh pizza from their mobile truck, the dining options reflect the community’s diverse tastes.

Food and Drinks for Every Taste

Wynston’s Ice Cream is featuring themed flavors that tie into the screening, while Maya’s Cookies offers cookie decorating kits that give kids another activity option.

Milonga Empanadas brings something different with choripán sandwiches featuring Argentine chorizo and chimichurri, and Draft Republic handles adult beverages with beer, wine, and cocktails.

The mix of quick bites, substantial meals, and treats means families can make dinner out of the evening or just grab snacks to complement their movie experience. Having all these options in one walkable area makes the logistics much easier than typical outdoor movie setups.
