Christmas Vacation

Get ready for a festive movie night in Newport! What’s Up Newp and The JPT Film & Events Center are bringing back their annual screening of “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” on December 18 and 19 at The JPT.

The fun kicks off each evening with a pre-movie concert by David Tessier’s All Star Stars from 6:15 to 7:15 PM. They’ll be rocking out with a holiday-themed setlist to get everyone in the spirit. After that, the movie starts at 7:30 PM.

As a sweet bonus, you’ll get free Christmas cookies with your ticket. It’s all part of the “Holidays At The JPT” series, so you know it’s going to be good.

Want to join the “National Lampoon Christmas Vacation Party”? Grab your tickets on the Jane Pickens Theater website. The whole shebang lasts about 2 hours and 37 minutes, including the hour-long concert and the 97-minute movie.

Don’t miss out on this chance to laugh, rock, and munch on cookies while watching a holiday classic!
