Initiatives > “Movies in Milian” 2025 Outdoor Movie Series
About
We’re back, and (hopefully!!) drier than ever! After three rain-outs last Fall, we made the call to move our popular Movies in Milian series to the Spring and the wait is finally over! We’re thrilled to be bringing back our same great 20th (plus one year!) anniversary movies to Milian Park (499 Massachusetts Avenue NW) this April with “National Treasure” kicking things off on Wednesday, April 2 at sundown! The move to Spring has also given us an opportunity we simply could not miss out on: be sure to join us on Wednesday, April 9 for a special “On Wednesdays, we wear pink” National Cherry Blossom Festival Celebration! Dig those neon pink skinny jeans out of the back of your closet (or just any article of pink clothing will do!) and get ready to celebrate cherry blossom season in Mount Vernon Triangle with a screening of “Mean Girls” (and stay tuned, more cherry blossom surprises to come!). We will round out the series with “The Incredibles” on April 16 and “Shrek 2” on April 23.
To get you back in the mood of our 20th anniversary lineup, here’s what we had to say about it back in 2024:
Ken Jennings is on a 74-game Jeopardy win streak. You’re drinking a Sprite Remix while wearing UGG Boots and making calls on your Motorola razr cellphone. “Yeah!” by Usher is playing on the radio. The year is 2004 and the Mount Vernon Triangle CID has just been chartered.
In celebration of our 20th anniversary, we are taking you back in time to 2004 with our Movies in Milian series this season! We have put together a lineup filled with nostalgia and cutting-edge animation that will bring you back to younger times (no, we will not be sharing how old we were in 2004). So, bring your own picnic blankets or borrow a chair from us and enjoy free movies in Milian Park (499 Massachusetts Avenue NW) at sundown (approximately 7:30pm).
We look forward to seeing you soon!
