Movie Under the Wings: Jurassic Park

[Albuquerque, NM] –The National Museum of Nuclear Science & History will host a special screening of the iconic 1993 classic film Jurassic Park on June 15th in Heritage Park, the museum’s outdoor exhibit area. Doors will open at 7:30 pm, and the movie will begin at dark.

Guests will watch Jurassic Park against a backdrop of historic planes, like the B-29 Superfortress, a B-47 Stratojet, and many more, creating a one-of-a-kind family-friendly atmosphere. Before the movie begins, guests can enjoy a live DJ. Local food and beverage trucks will be on-site, offering a variety of delicious food options and beverages for purchase. Visitors will have an opportunity to tour the museum before the movie starts.

Attendees are encouraged to channel their inner dinosaurs and enter our Dress Like a Dinosaur or Character from Jurassic Park contest. Dress up as your favorite prehistoric creature or character from the movie and prepare to roar and impress for a chance to win museum prizes.

Guests are asked to bring outdoor chairs to ensure a comfortable viewing experience. Please note that dogs, except for service dogs, must be left at home.

Movie Under the Wings is included with paid museum admission. Because this is a special fundraising event for restoring artifacts in Heritage Park, museum memberships and other passes are not permitted. Movie Under the Wings admission may be purchased online before the event or at the door.
