Thank You for Another Unforgettable Summer of Flicks at the Fountain

Five Thursday nights, five movies, and countless summer memories. Another wonderful season of Flicks at the Fountain has officially come to a close, and we are feeling incredibly grateful for everyone who helped make it possible.

From the moment blankets and low-back chairs began filling the Fountain Parking Lot each Thursday evening to the moment the big screen lit up at dusk, it was so special to see families, friends, neighbors, and visitors come together in the heart of Carlsbad Village. Whether you joined us for one movie or made Flicks part of your summer routine, thank you for spending your Thursday nights with us.

Of course, a free community event like Flicks at the Fountain simply would not be possible without the incredible businesses and organizations that support it.

A Special Thank You to Our Event Sponsors

We are especially grateful to Lily Field Realty, Handel’s Homemade Ice Cream Carlsbad, and the Carlsbad Police Officers Foundation for their generous support of Flicks at the Fountain.

Their commitment goes far beyond helping us put movies on the big screen. Their support allows us to continue offering an event where our community can gather, spend time together, support local businesses, and enjoy one of the simple pleasures of summer in Carlsbad Village.

Thank You to Our Promotional Sponsor

A huge thank you also goes to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Carlsbad, our Promotional Sponsor, for all their fun crafts all season long and for helping us spread the word to bring even more families to the Fountain this summer. 

Their continued dedication to local youth and families makes them such a natural partner for an event centered around creating memorable experiences for all ages.

Every one of these businesses and organizations played a part in making Flicks at the Fountain possible, and we are incredibly fortunate to have such strong community partners here in Carlsbad Village.

Most of all, thank you to everyone who showed up.

You brought your blankets, chairs, dinners, kids, friends, neighbors, and plenty of enthusiasm. You filled the Fountain with laughter before the movies began and stayed with us as the sun went down and the screen lit up. That is what turns a simple outdoor movie into a true Carlsbad Village summer tradition.

From all of us at the Carlsbad Village Association, thank you for another memorable season of Flicks at the Fountain. We loved spending these summer nights with you, and we already can’t wait to see you back at the Fountain next summer.
