While the summer is definitely the season to soak up all the sun and enjoy tons of water play activities for the whole family, there may be times when you’re looking to beat the summer heat and find family-friendly activities that work indoors.
Movie nights are a great activity that works for all ages. Check out this list of movie deals and experiences that offer a chance for the whole family to relax and unwind this summer.

Immersive Movie Night
Every Thursday, in June and July, step into the wizarding world for a spellbinding movie night at Ancient Lore Village! This is no ordinary film screening; prepare for an immersive experience where the magic of “Harry Potter + the Sorcerer’s Stone” comes to life around you! As the movie unfolds, enjoy themed surprises delivered right to your table — from Pumpkin Juice to Chocolate Frogs and more — perfectly timed with key moments in the film. Take your seat in a setting straight out of Hogwarts, surrounded by enchanting décor and your fellow housemates.
Costumes are encouraged but not required, so don your robes or simply bring your love for all things wizarding. Whether you belong to Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, or Slytherin, you’ll feel right at home in the Village for a night of enchantment and adventure. If you’re looking for magical things to do in Knoxville, this is an experience you won’t want to miss!
The Magical Feast menu includes: Village Salad, Roasted Chicken Quarters, Roasted Potatoes, Garlic-Roasted Green Beans, and Sorcerer’s Stone Cheesecake with Red Macerated Berries.
