Wrap up the year with festive holiday movie nights! Check out themes, movies, and event ideas for October below!

• It’s never too early to get a head start on your holiday card! Create a themed photo booth filled with fun, festive props for families to snap a jolly pic or two.
• It’s not the holidays unless you hear some carols. Host an evening featuring your favorite holiday carols to spread tidings of good cheer by inviting a local chorus group to perform holiday classics before the movie.
• Transform an area of your park into a Christmas market with vendors selling crafts, food and gifts. Organize a toy drive for underprivileged children, and screen classic holiday films under the stars.

• If you plan on showing holiday films throughout the season, make sure to include some diverse ones in addition to other holiday classics.
• People around the world celebrate Christmas, but they don’t all celebrate it the same way. Teach attendees about other countries’ traditions with a "Christmas around the World" party after your screening. You can share with your community what food is savored, day is celebrated, stories are told and songs are sung. Be sure to also share how they pass on Christmas wishes!
• Collaborate with African-American organizations to host a Kwanzaa celebration. Showcase cultural performances, music and art. Screen films that highlight the principles of Kwanzaa and hold discussions on African-American heritage.
• Celebrate Hanukkah by partnering with Jewish organizations to incorporate menorah lighting, dreidel games and traditional Jewish foods into your event.
