Life is funny when it comes to children. Suzzane and I were like two peas in a pod. We love movies, the water and swimming in the Summer and visiting Water Parks. Along with Amusement Parks and all the rides they have to ride. Especially at Six Flags which we would have lived in if we could have.
Now Suzzie is gone, and I have Charlie who is scared of heights just like his dad and doesn’t do Amusement Parks and rides. Charlie doesn’t care for Swimming which David, and I love. Then there is the movies which Charlie a lot of the time doesn’t want to go to. Even though we use then in Homeschool.
Which is why I didn’t says anything to David or Charlie about wanting to see the Barbie movie. As for my niece Lily she also isn’t into Barbies. I figured I would go and see the Barbie movie by myself. Unless I could talk my sister Debbie or one of my friends into going with me. Would you like to go?
Then the other day we were getting ready to watch Transformers: Rise of the Beast when the trailer came on for the Barbie movie. Before David or I could say anything Charlie let me know he wouldn’t mind watching the movie Because it has one of his favorite actors in it. Let me tell you I was surprised and before Charlie could change his mind I plan on purchasing tickets to see the movie.
I wish Alama Drafthouse was still right down the street from ne because I would like to take my family here because they are hosting Barbieland Lives At Alamo Drafthouse / Early Access Screenings, BARBIE Parties, Dress-Up Screenings, Slumber Parties, And Exclusive Merch. Would you like to come with us?
Celebrate Greta Gerwig’s sensational BARBIE with early access screenings, BARBIE Parties, dress-up screenings, slumber parties, and our exclusive line of merchandise – the BARBIE X Alamo Drafthouse Collection.
Before you ask yes, I would like to have this lunch kit and thermos. How about you?
We bleed pink here at Alamo Drafthouse, so you can imagine just how excited we are for Greta Gerwig’s hilarious, glamorous, irreverent take on BARBIE. That’s why we’re capturing just a little of that Barbieland magic with enough unique screenings, fabulous collectibles, and exclusive fun to fill a dream house.
Barbie is all about the accessories, so we’re going all out with an exclusive line of must-have products that any Barbie fan would love – the BARBIE X Alamo Drafthouse Collection.

And that’s just the start of our exclusive BARBIE X Alamo Drafthouse Collection. We’ve got more fun, fabulous, and BARBIE-chic accessories headed to select theaters, including shirts for adults and kids, enamel pins, stylish sunglasses, and a stationery set, so keep your eyes peeled for our next merch drop.
Now let’s talk about all the awesome ways you can see BARBIE with us. Keep in mind that not all screenings will be available at every theater, but no matter where you are there’s a little bit of Barbieland for you to enjoy.
If you want to be the first Barbie or Ken to see it, then our BARBIE Party Blowout: Early Access Screening on July 19th is a must attend. Not only will you see it before anyone else, but you’ll also enjoy free themed props, interactive fun, and a special Cocktail available for order at the neon pink party you’ve dreamed about since you were five years old. Grab tickets for this sensational sneak peek HERE.
Barbies that want to go to party but can’t make it early are in luck, because you’ll find the same themed props and interactive fun at our BARBIE Party. If you’ve ever been to one of our Movie Parties, you’ll be familiar with the concept, but it’s basically going to be a joyous celebration of all things BARBIE with your fellow fans. Grab your tickets HERE for the most fun you’ll have at the movies all Summer.
If you want to feel like a real Barbie or Ken, then our BARBIECORE Dress-Up Screening is for you. Made for the most diehard Barbie fans (or anyone, Barbie welcomes all), we encourage you to put on your best Barbieland fit and celebrate the doll that we all know and love. You can even compete in our Barbie costume contest and immortalize your look in our special BARBIE Box photo op – also available for any guest at our Wrigleyville, Littleton, Downtown LA, Staten Island, St. Louis, Crystal City, and New Mission theaters. You can save your seats HERE.
Remember the joys of staying up all night playing Barbies with your besties? We sure do, and that’s what our late-night BARBIE Slumber Party Pajama Screenings are all about. While you won’t actually be staying overnight in the theater (our lame parents said no) you are encouraged to wear pjs and BYOP – bring your own pillow. Our normally strict no talking policy will be relaxed a bit so you can chat and giggle with your BFFs, so get a group together and get your tickets HERE.
Last and far from least are our BARBIE Brunch Screenings. Name a better combo than Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, and a whole lot of Mimosas and brunch food. Can’t be done. Snatch those tickets up HERE. *Only available with online ticket purchase of BARBIE starting on 6/21, lunchbox set purchase voided if ticket is refunded.
