I know this is a bit delayed, but it has been a CRAZY fall with some awesome events. This was such a beautiful fall night and an AMAZING event in Manhattan that we were privileged to be part of. Nothing but great people and a great night. Just wish the outcome of the game would've been better for our Wildcat friends. We hope to do this again sometime soon! Thanks to Manhattan Brewing Company for the invite and letting us be a 30 foot part of this event with our massive Majestic screen!

We’re so excited this is back on the calendar after it was rained out last time. There's nothing better than an adults-only night out and a movie under the stars. “10 Things I Hate About You” is a classic, and the food and drinks lineup looks amazing. We hope to see you all there for a perfect night on the lawn! The weather is looking amazing for Friday night!

As we begin to wind down this summer and head into our fall season, we just want to give a big THANK YOU to all of our awesome clients.

This summer has been wild. In the past 3 months we’ve had more rain than ever, more cancellations, more reschedules, and just more chaos in general due to all of the rain and non-stop weather. But through all of it, our amazing clients have been nothing short of understanding, flexible, and supportive. Because of that, we’ve been able to make it all work and still bring the Backyard Box Office fun to all of your events.

Also gotta shout out our team. These guys have been absolute champs dealing with last-minute changes, soaking wet gear, and those surprise pop-up storms that love to hit right when we’re setting up or in the middle of a movie. They've come back to the warehouse and spent a 2-3 extra hours drying everything off, airing it out, testing it out to ensure nothing is broken, and then putting it all back together for the next show. It hasn’t been easy, but they’ve made it happen.

Fingers crossed for a drier August and an awesome fall season. We appreciate every single one of you!

Beautiful weather tonight and we'll get this one in before the heat comes back to Kansas City. We’re excited to be out at the Prairie Village pool tonight for a movie under the stars! Thanks to the city for having us again this year. It's always fun bringing the big screen to great summer spots like this.

Join us for a moonlight swim featuring the movie 'Finding Nemo' Friday, July 18 at the Prairie Village pool. The slides and diving pool will be open until the movie starts at approximately 8:45 p.m. During the movie, only the leisure pool will be open for anyone on a raft.

Admission is included with your PV pool membership, or you can pay at the gate.

The 2025 opponents are officially out — now we know who we’re playing next season… just not when (yet). 👀🏈

Mark your calendars 📅 - May 14th is the big reveal for the full 2025 schedule! That’s also when we’ll start taking reservations for Chiefs Game Watch Parties — because watching Mahomes work his magic deserves a giant screen.

Whether you’re spending the day chasing eggs, catching up with family, or just enjoying a quiet moment and a little chocolate (okay, maybe a lot of chocolate), we hope it’s a good one.

Whatever Easter looks like for you this year, we hope it's a great day.

Happy Easter from all of us at Backyard Box Office!
