The Movies Only Festival Pass is like a regular Festival Pass, only it’s half the price and doesn’t include discounts at local eateries and invitations to special events.

National Velvet at La Perla

Join us for our fourth annual Elizabeth Taylor movie at the La Perla Patio Bar on the 17th floor of the Plaza Hotel Pioneer Park. This year’s feature is National Velvet, the 1944 coming-of-age tale of a horse-crazy 12-year-old, the horse she wins in a raffle and her dream of winning the Grand National steeplechase. Taylor was 12 when she made the movie, which was released during World War II. It also stars Mickey Rooney. Why are we showing one of Liz’s movies? Because she lived occasionally in the penthouse, now La Perla, when she was engaged to and later married Hilton heir Conrad “Nicky” Hilton. We’ll show National Velvet on Tuesday, July 23. Doors open at 8 pm, movie starts about 8:30 pm, depending on sunlight. Tickets: $30, includes a flauta bar. A cash bar will be open. Seating is limited. Our 18th annual Plaza Classic Film Festival is July 17-27, 2025.

Big Hero 6 at La Nube

La Nube Steam Discovery Center has been a big hit with kids, adults and families since it opened on August 10, 2024. We showed a movie there last year to give our audience a sneak peek at the place. We’re back in 2025, this time with a movie that ties in nicely with the kinds of discovery that go on in there. We’re showing Disney’s animated Big Hero 6, about a robotics prodigy named Hiro and the healthcare robot who form a superhero team to combat the villain who stole Hiro’s brother’s invention. Big Hero 6 will show on the second floor Galeria of La Nube at 8 pm Thursday, July 24. Tickets are $10. Seating is limited. Gozo’s will be on hand to sell delicious ice cream and more.
