Free Outdoor Movie Night at The New Parkway | Oakland

Experience the friendships, romances and adventures of a group of high school kids in the 1950s. Welcome to the singing and dancing world of “Grease,” the most successful movie musical of all time. A wholesome exchange student (Olivia Newton-John) and a leather-clad Danny (John Travolta) have a summer romance, but will it cross clique lines?

This screening will take place in the Hive parking lot, on 24th street across from the New Parkway, in partnership with the Hive and Drake’s Dealership. The film starts when it’s sufficiently dark, likely around 8:30 or 9 pm. Admission to all outdoor screenings is free.

This is the New Parkway’s third consecutive summer of carrying on the free outdoor movie tradition, and one of Uptown Oakland’s favorite neighborhood events. Bring your friends, your date, your kids, and snacks, and come early to get a good seat.

Please note, the promoter has confirmed that “Grease” Free Outdoor Oakland Movie Night canceled and will not be happening on August 26, 2017 as originally listed.
