Movies on Main Street returns for its fifth year in downtown Washington, offering families a chance to enjoy free outdoor flicks throughout the summer.

The Main Street Washington tradition coincides with the Washington Summer Classic this Friday with a showing of Disney’s “Encanto” at dusk in front of the Central Park Bandstand. Main Street Executive Director Sarah Grunewaldt predicts Central Park will reverberate with kids singing along to the film’s songs, “That is one of my favorite things when we’ve done other movies in the past. We’ve done some other movie musicals that have been really popular and the kids come in their costumes and they sing and they dance on the sidewalk or in the park as the songs are playing and it’s just a lot of fun.”

The next Movies on Main Street events will be July 1st showing “Sing 2” and August 5th with “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” as well as October 8th showing “Hotel Transylvania” during the Hocus Pocus in the Park event.
