The movies play rain or shine, but in extreme weather will be cancelled for the safety of our moviegoers.
The “I the 90s” Rosslyn Outdoor Film Festival builds on the success of the Rosslyn “I the 80s” Film Festival which attracted more than 15,000 attendees during its 19-week run last year." says Cecilia Cassidy, Executive Director of the Rosslyn BID.
