Friday, May 09
8:30pm

Get ready to sing and dance. The 2025 Films on the Lawn season kicks off with the ultimate feel-good movie: MAMMA MIA! (2008). Join us under the stars as we follow Donna (Meryl Streep) and her daughter Sophie’s hilarious and heartwarming journey on a beautiful Greek island. Sophie’s wedding is approaching, and with it, a secret plan to discover her father from among three surprise guests from Donna’s past. Don’t miss this unforgettable night of singing, laughter, and pure joy!

Join us early for fun pre-show activities like writing on our Diary Wall, Face Painting, “Who’s Your Daddy” debate, and boogie in your best “Mamma Mia” fits during our costume contest!

Reserved Spots are located towards the middle of the film lawn for an enhanced viewing experience. Premium Spots surround the exterior of the lawn and provide the best viewing experience. A member of our team will be available on the Film Lawn to help you locate your spot.

Weather:
We can’t predict the weather, but we can be prepared!
If you plan to bring a blanket to sit on, consider bringing a tarp or other water-resistant material along in case the ground is damp.
