Watch the magic happen in this Pop-Up Cinema time lapse video!

Everybody over 35 who had a BMX bike as a kid will appreciate this clip of my boy in our driveway. Living his best life!

Rowley IA does it up right, popcorn concessions and everything! There was even a live big band playing when we first arrived. Excellent night. (King Kong System shown)

One of the best features of our systems is that all of the gear operates from BEHIND the screen, leaving out front wide open for walking, playing, dancing, whatever your hearts desire!

Great outdoor movie party tonight. I’m feeling like we need to be popping up more musicals! Book your favorite musical at www.popupcinemacr.com (King Kong system pictured)
