We love FREE events, and this is a fun outdoor movie happening at Naftzger Park this year. Families, mark your calendar for Paws & Popcorn in the Park on October 3, 2025.
The evening kicks off with playtime in the dog park, so your pups can run, sniff, and socialize before the show. Then, grab your blankets and lawn chairs, settle in on the grass, and enjoy a special outdoor screening of The Secret Life of Pets starting at 6:30 p.m.. Local food trucks will be parked nearby, serving up snacks and drinks, so you can pair your popcorn with dinner or dessert.
What makes this event extra special is that it’s completely free to attend. It’s a budget-friendly way to enjoy a night out while spending quality time with your dog and your family. Events like this are exactly why I love Wichita; you can make lasting memories without spending a dime.
You can pack a picnic or bring your own dinner to make this a completely free night for the family, or grab a bite from one of the food trucks on-site. Admission is free for everyone, but don’t forget to bring along a chair or blanket for comfy seating. If you’d like to save even more, check out our guides to Where Kids Eat Free in Wichita or the Best Restaurant Specials and swing by one of those spots before the movie.
So mark your calendars, leash up your pup, and get ready for a howling good time at Paws & Popcorn in the Park.
