Film On The Rocks: The Sandlot at Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Presented by the Denver Film, The Sandlot at the Red Rocks Amphitheater is one of the five classic movies that have been particularly chosen for this year's Film on the Rocks. This year marks the comeback of a fully in-amphitheater experience for movie-goers, who were limited to watching movies through drive-in screenings for the past two years due to the pandemic.

The 1993 American coming-of-age sports comedy film, The Sandlot, is one of the five movies to be shown this year. This is the perfect movie to watch with your kids as this will surely evoke nostalgia. The film, set in the 1960s, follows the story of a shy fifth-grader, Scott Smalls, who finds difficulty finding friends and learning baseball when their family moved to a Los Angeles suburb. With her mother's encouragement, he tries to join a group of boys who play baseball daily in a local sandlot. The story takes off from the simple baseball games in the sandlot to a series of shenanigans from the boys. Thus, one of the funniest yet poignant coming-of-age classics was born.

"We're incredibly grateful to our audiences who fully embraced the drive-in concept for Film on the Rocks over these past two seasons. However, there is nothing more special than the in-amphitheater experience that Red Rocks delivers and we know that this year's lineup, packed with some of the most popular films of all time, as well as some new film and documentary additions, is going to create a very memorable summer under the stars," says Kevin Smith, CEO of Denver Film.

Nearly 30 years after its release, The Sandlot will definitely be a good movie to sit in with the family. Don't miss this chance to see it all over again with your loved ones at Red Rocks. Grab your tickets now!
