The grounds at Hampton-Preston Mansion and Gardens will once again provide a unique setting to watch a movie!

Bring your chair and a blanket to watch Planes, Disney’s high-flying animated comedy, in socially distanced pods. Family Flight Night is presented by the Columbia Metropolitan Airport and will include a food truck on site and a fun paper airplane activity for kids. CAE will also be giving away backpacks to the first 65 kids in attendance.

While guests are welcome to bring their own picnic, food will be available to purchase from Bud & Bertha's food truck and Cromer’s P-Nuts. Booze Pops Cola will be on hand, providing both alcoholic and non-alcoholic pops. 

Prices are based on the purchase of a five-person pod/square. The gardens will open for guests to enjoy at 6:30 p.m. and the movie will begin at 7:30 p.m.
