Maybe drive-in movies are a thing of the past but at least you can still watch films for free at an outdoor venue. The Denver Parks and Recreation Department hosts
Movies in the Park using 24-feet-wide inflatable screens and high-tech sound systems. Free popcorn, snow cones, and cotton candy are available at each showing. Other concessions are available for purchase. Films start at sunset and you are encouraged to bring blankets or low-seating lawn chairs.
