Movies on The Lawn presents Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

Uptown Atlanta, the 47-acre mixed-use destination surrounding the Lindbergh MARTA station, today announces the official summer lineup for Movies on The Lawn. As a part of Uptown’s Signature Events Series, Movies on The Lawn will include free outdoor movie screenings with themed food and beverage selections from Uptown Test Kitchen’s Chow À La Carte chefs, as well as a variety of crafts, giveaways, unique performances and more.

Movies on The Lawn presents Ferris Bueller’s Day Off: On Saturday, August 12, Uptown will celebrate National Lazy Day and the 35th anniversary of Ferris Bueller’s Day Off with a special screening of the famed American teen comedy. The event will feature an 80s-themed dance party with a live DJ playing retro tunes. The Chow À La Carte chefs will offer delicious food options inspired by the movie. Plus, attendees will have a chance to learn about Atlanta’s pedestrian paths and trails in partnership with the Atlanta BeltLine – since wandering the trails is a perfect way to spend a lazy day in the city. Pre-movie activities will begin at 4 p.m. with the movie starting at 8 p.m.

Movies on The Lawn is free and open to the public, but registration is encouraged via Eventbrite. Costs for food, beverage and vendor goods will vary. Event attendees are encouraged to bring blankets and chairs. Free parking is available in the Garson Deck located next to the Lawn and is situated just across the street from the Lindbergh MARTA station for convenient transportation.
