Shrek

Yes, the new normal is drive-ins again, taking us back to the good ol’ days when you and your main squeeze could sneak away for a mack sesh while pretending to watch a movie. Parked in the back of the lot with all the other young, dumb and full of… well you know the rest individuals, movie night was always about the time spent together more than the film. Well, not anymore! Shrek at Balloon Fiesta Park (9201 Balloon Museum Dr. NE) aims to ensure your eyes don’t leave the screen as this now 20 year old film returns to screens Thursday, July 23 starting at 7PM. This all-ages film answers the age old question of does an ogre really have a heart? Tickets are on sale now, starting at $25 so you can bring your date and ignore them completely once the first notes of Smash Mouth begin lilting off the screen and to your ears. (Dan Rayne Pennington)
