Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater

The Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater kicked off its summer event schedule on Saturday with Movie Night at The Amp, taking place on Saturdays through at least August. Attendees were required to wear face coverings upon entering and exiting, as well as common areas, but were able to relax on the lawn during the movie without masks. The Amp summer schedule also features live music, including the free Hot Summer Nights series on Tuesdays.

Now showing: Lakeside Cinema events begin at dusk, around 8:15 p.m., on Fridays through August. Families are welcome to bring picnics and blankets/chairs for the movie. “Due to copyright issues, we can’t tell you what movie we’re showing,” the Avon website said, “but they’re all PG-rated.”

Concessions: Bring your own, or support a local restaurant by bringing in takeout.

COVID policies: Maintain social distancing in the park and space out seating so that 6 feet of distance can be maintained between groups. The lawn is quite large.
