The PPP returns for its FIFTH season! A casual bicycle ride traversing approx. 3-5 miles (5-8km) with a different route each time. The end destination is a mystery park or ark-like setting. The term “park” will be used liberally here, so expect the unexpected! At the endpoint we’ll enjoy a picnic dinner. Eating will be potluck style, so please bring food and drink to share (preferably vegetarian/vegan).
Please also try to bring your own silverware, plate, and cup. We will also stop at a grocery store along the way. If it looks like it’ll rain we’ll end up at a COVERED destination.

We’re getting our week-long festival started right with the Opening Night Throwdown. Come inside to watch the movies (21+) and stay outside for the New Belgium Street Party, all ages and FREE! Though it’s all ages, the street party is a decidedly adult atmosphere.

NEW BELGIUM STREET PARTY
Come party in the street with us for the New Belgium Street Party. We’re opening up Clinton Street between 25th and 26th for our very own party with a beer garden, entertainers, music and more.

EMBRACE THE LINE- COME EARLY
Every year the Opening Night Throwdown screenings have sold out, so this year we added in an additional screening at 11pm. We suggest you come an hour early to get in and to have time to hang out at the New Belgium Street Party. Embrace the line; meet a new friend. Tickets go on sale a 1/2 hour before the screening time, so you can buy your ticket and hang out.

Shows are 21+ so you must have your ID and you can only buy a ticket for yourself. CASH only.

If you’re concerned about getting in, you should really consider buying one of our VIP Access Packs and come in style.

EMBRACE THE LINE
So, yeah, there is a line to get in. A line of awesomeness. Embrace the line. Make a friend. Meet the people you’re standing next to. Drink a beer – yes, you can do that in the line.
