The Secret Life of Pets (PG) will start at sunset on the Dalrymple Boathouse lawn across from Food Truck Fridays and Carousel Village.

Free Admission

Below are some tips to make the event enjoyable for all. If you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to email [email protected]. We look forward to seeing you on the boathouse lawn!

1. First things first: Getting to the Boathouse Lawn
The boathouse lawn is located directly across from Carousel Village, the site of Food Truck Fridays!

2. Getting a Great Seat
The movie will start at approximately 8:30 pm, but we encourage you to arrive early.

3. What to Bring
A blanket to sit on, bug spray and sunscreen. Chairs are permitted, but please set up farther back on the lawn so that the view of the screen is not obstructed for those who are sitting on the grass. The evenings are still cool, can get chilly, so you may wish to bring a sweater or jacket. Children are welcome! Please do not bring your dog to the event.

4. Food & Beverages
Bring a picnic or enjoy the fare at Food Truck Friday (5 pm – 8 pm at Carousel Village). Please remember that alcohol is prohibited at Roger Williams Park and in all Providence Parks.

5. Getting set up
When you lay out your blankets, please keep them as close together as possible and leave room for your neighbors.

6. Bathrooms
The restroom at Carousel Village (across the street) will be open for part of the event. In addition, a restroom will be available at the Dalrymple Boat House, located next to the lawn.

9. Don’t trash your Park!
Thank you for your help to keep Roger Williams Park clean! If possible, please bring a bag with you to collect your trash and bring it with you when you exit the park or place in an appropriate bin on the boat house lawn as you leave the event.

10. The End: Getting out of the Park
As you leave the park, please be courteous and obey traffic laws.
