Movies in the Park Aug. 5 — Trolls World Tour

Join the Park Ridge Park District for the next Movies in the Park event — Trolls World Tour — starting at 8:30 p.m. at Prospect Park.

Poppy and Branch discover that there are six different troll tribes scattered over six different lands. Each tribe is also devoted to six different kinds of music — funk, country, techno, classical, pop and rock. When rockers Queen Barb and King Thrash set out to destroy the other music, Poppy and Branch embark on a daring mission to unite the trolls and save the diverse melodies from becoming extinct.

In case of inclement weather, movie will be held in the Paula Hassell O’Connor Community Building at Prospect Park.

Prospect Park is located at 733 N. Prospect Ave.
