Calling all millennials! Pack your bags for summer camp nostalgia and twin-switching chaos—it’s Parent Trap Movie Night, millennial edition!!✨ We’re throwing it back to the ultimate comfort movie with a night that feels like sleepaway camp, but with better food and no curfew. Before the movie starts, channel your inner Annie and Hallie by making bandanas and friendship bracelets, perfect for trading or keeping as your official camp souvenir. Try your luck with friendly poker games (casual, low-pressure, and just for fun), mix and sip on themed mocktails, and strike a pose at our photo booth inspired by camp vibes, London chic, and Napa Valley elegance. And because millennials know breakfast food is elite at all hours, we’re serving breakfast for dinner—think cozy, nostalgic, and totally movie-night approved. Then settle in for The Parent Trap, where the outfits are iconic, the soundtrack hits just right, and the idea of summer camp still feels magical. ✨ Nostalgia. Crafts. Games. Mocktails. Breakfast at night. ✨ It’s the reunion your inner child has been waiting for.
