As part of our July 3rd Celebration catch a screening of 1986’s Top Gun (PG), curated by The Cary Theater.

Skilled but reckless fighter pilot Pete “Maverick” Mitchell (Tom Cruise) attends the Navy’s elite Top Gun school, where he competes with the best pilots while grappling with his own insecurities and need for control. As he forges a rivalry with the disciplined Iceman and falls for his instructor Charlie, Maverick is tested by both personal tragedy and professional challenges. Ultimately, he learns the value of teamwork and discipline, proving himself in a high-stakes combat mission.

Come early to enjoy pre-screening activities for all ages, as a part of our July 3rd Celebration, making it a perfect night out for everyone. The film will begin at sunset, approximately 8:30 p.m.

Grab your cushions, blankets, and chairs for ultimate comfort as you settle in to enjoy the film. Food trucks will also be on site.
