A couple of weeks ago, I had the immense pleasure of attending a Rolling Roadshow screening of Red Headed Stranger at Willie Nelson’s ranch in Luck, Texas. If you’ve never experienced a Rolling Roadshow event, you’re missing out. It’s a one-of-a-kind outdoor cinematic experience that’s a hell of a lot of fun.This time, Alamo Drafthouse’s Rolling Roadshow is teaming up with Austin Food and Wine Alliance for two outdoor events featuring screenings of Tombstone and Top Gun, and star Val Kilmer himself will also be in attendance each night.
On Saturday, August 31, a special screening of Tombstone, the 1993 Western featuring Kilmer’s iconic portrayal of gunslinger Doc Holliday, will play outdoors at Lorraine Ghost Town. Then on Sunday, September 1, Kilmer will also be at Camp Mabry for an outdoor screening of one of the most popular action and bromance films of all time, Top Gun. Tickets to both events are on sale now at rollingroadshow.com with a very limited number of meet-and-greet VIP tickets available.If you’re in the Austin area, these are two events you don’t want to miss! Specific details from the press release are mentioned below:
