Polar Express Movie Night at Edwards Island Park presented by Carter County Bank

Join Elizabethton Parks and Recreation for a cozy Christmas movie
night, sponsored by Carter County Bank. We will be showing The Polar Express (G) at Edwards Island Park on December 5, 2026.
The festivities will start at 3:00 p.m. and the movie will begin
at dusk around 5:30 p.m. on our big inflatable screen.
“All Aboard! Have your tickets ready,” because free train rides will be provided for all to enjoy before the movie begins. We may not have the real Polar Express, however “one thing about trains... it doesn't matter where they're going. What matters is deciding to get on.”
Along with our free train rides, we’ll also have inflatables available at no charge.
“Here we only got one rule / Never, ever let it cool / Keep it cooking in the pot / Soon we got hot chocolate!” Feel free to sing along to the “Hot Chocolate” song from the movie as we’ll be
providing free hot cocoa & cookies.
Have your Christmas gift list ready, because Santa and Mrs. Claus will be there to listen to all of your wishes.
Be sure to bring along a pillow, blanket, or a lawn chair to watch the movie in maximum comfort. Food Trucks will be on site with dinner and snack options available for purchase.
This event also marks the beginning of the season for Skate by the Doe, presented by Carter County Bank. The ice rink will be open every weekend in December. Unless otherwise specified, the hours will be 5:00-9:00 p.m. on Fridays, 3:00-9:00 p.m. on Saturdays, and 2:00-6:00 pm on Sundays, and will operate on a first-come, first-served basis. Keep an eye on the Skate by the Doe Facebook page for schedule updates.
