Wholesome family fun can be a little tricky to come by after dark, but we have a suggestion: Splash Movie Nights! Hosted by the Deep Eddy Pool in Austin, Texas, this kid-friendly event shows blockbuster hits on an inflatable movie screen that stretches high into the sky, offering event-goers young and young at heart an unobstructed view of their favorite movie characters.
This Saturday, Deep Eddy Pool's movie night will bring the affable characters from Despicable Me 2 to this municipal pool near Elan East. As you take in the flick, you can lounge on a blanket spread out on the grassy hillside, float lazily on a raft in the historic, 600,000-gallon pool—or do both! Be sure to bring your favorite snacks and refreshments; you might work up an appetite wading around during the 98-minute movie. And don't forget to pack some towels!
Splash Movie Night at Deep Eddy Pool begins at dusk—around 8:45 p.m.— Saturday, August 2. Admission is a bargain, priced between $1 and $3. See the Deep Eddy Pool website for complete details.
