FOOD

Every ticket includes one item from one of our on-site food trucks and if you’re still hungry, additional items will be available for purchase throughout the evening!

We’re excited to welcome two amazing local favourites who will be serving up delicious, made-to-order comfort food all night long:

REEL Mac & Cheese  
This isn’t your basic boxed mac. REEL Mac & Cheese is a gourmet food truck specializing in rich, made-from-scratch macaroni and cheese; all with a movie-themed twist!
They start with real butter, whole milk, select spices, and a blend of seven premium cheeses to create that perfect creamy base. Then come the creative toppings, like BBQ pulled pork, butter chicken, or spicy jalapeños; all named after iconic films (yes, there’s even a “Jurassic Pork”). Whether you want cheesy, spicy, or hearty, there’s something unforgettable in every bowl.

Crispy Cravings
Serving up indulgent, crispy eats that live up to their name; Crispy Cravings brings the bold flavours, satisfying portions, and classic comfort food vibes. Perfect for pairing with your favourite beverage!

ENTERTAINMENT

Right here from Langley! Whiskey Blind started as two friends writing country-rock tunes together during the quiet days of 2020. That creative spark led them to form Whiskey Blind and in just a few years, they’ve quickly become one of the fastest-rising bands in the local music scene.

This summer, you can catch them lighting up stages at Ribfest Langley, the Calgary Stampede, and more! Known for their high-energy shows that get the crowd moving, you won’t want to miss them live.

Follow them on Instagram @whiskeyblindcountry and take a listen!
