Santa Barbara Public Library invites the public to enjoy free Family Movie Nights — including popcorn — at the Eastside Library, 3-5 p.m. on select Fridays at 1102 E. Montecito St.

Screenings will feature a mix of recent blockbusters and family favorites.

Guests can enjoy a shared experience that goes beyond streaming movies at home, all within a welcoming library setting, organizers said.
 
All films include subtitles in either English or Spanish, depending on the original language of the audio.

The screening room is arranged in an auditorium-style layout, with comfortable carpeted areas for younger children to stretch out. Seating is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
 
Popcorn is provided, and each event includes a giveaway — attendees may receive a mini 3D‑printed character inspired by the featured film, while supplies last.
 
Family Movie Nights at Eastside Library will be on the following Fridays:

July 24 – “Hoppers”


Aug. 28 – “Lilo & Stitch”
Sept. 25 – “Encanto”


Oct. 30 – “Coco”
Nov. 20 – “Rise of the Guardians”


Dec. 11 – “The Grinch”
