SANTA ANITA TO HOST Inaugural ‘STREET FOOD CINEMA’ SEPT. 14
‘PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN’ TO BE PROJECTED IN HIGH DEFINITION DLP
Santa Anita Park, in conjunction with Moviefone, will host its first-ever Street Food Cinema event, featuring “Pirates of the Caribbean” as part of a complete nighttime entertainment package in the track’s picturesque Infield Area on Saturday, Sept. 14, beginning at 5:30 p.m.
In addition to the film, Moviefone also provides attendees with access to A-List Food Trucks, live bands, comedians, interactive games, giveaways and full food and beverage services.
“This is a unique opportunity for us to attract and entertain an entirely new group of people,” said Santa Anita Director of Community Services and Special Projects Pete Siberell. “Moviefone, which is owned by AOL, has been producing these events with great success for several years now. As many of our fans and neighbors know, we have developed a tremendous outdoor entertainment venue in our Infield and this event should be a perfect fit.
“Pirates of the Caribbean will be presented with cinema quality sound and projection on a large screen with an image which is more than 40 feet wide by 22 feet high. The film will be shown in state of the art, true high definition DLP projection, which is the industry standard for real digital cinema. This is going to be a great night for everyone involved and we hope it will be the first of many more to come here in the years ahead.”
Admission is $10.00, and parking, available on the track’s northern perimeter via Gate 6, off of Colorado Place, is $8.00. Reserved seating is offered at $15.00. To make reservations or for more information on the Street Food Cinema at Santa Anita on Sept. 14, visit www.streetfoodcinema.com.
