This summer, you can watch movies, dance the night away or sit back and enjoy the Pacific Symphony at some of Irvine’s favorite parks. The city of Irvine and the county of Orange are hosting a variety of outdoor movie nights and concerts, for free, through August. No need to buy tickets or register. Just bring some low‑back chairs, blankets and a picnic basket to enjoy!
