Movies on the Potomac Return to National Harbor in May

Family travelers, movie night is back! National Harbor announced the return of its popular Movies on the Potomac series, May 1–Sept. 30, every Thursday at 7 p.m., “date night,” and every Sunday at 6 p.m. for “family night.”

“We are so excited that Sunday movies are back this year,” said Jackie Saunders, AVP of marketing, National Harbor. “It’s a great activity for families and friends and the perfect opportunity to gather on the waterfront on Thursdays and Sundays.”

The Plaza Screen on the waterfront will show recent releases and classic films, and attendees can bring chairs and order take-out from one of the many surrounding restaurants. All screenings are free to attend.
