Join the City of Aiken Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism for an evening of magic and holiday wonder with a showing of the film “The Polar Express”!

A classic film starring Tom Hanks as the Conductor, “The Polar Express” is a tale about a young boy who travels to the North Pole by enchanted train. On his journey, he learns to believe in the magic of Christmas. As the train’s conductor says: “One thing about trains: it doesn’t matter where they’re going. What matters is deciding to get on.” So, wear your best pajamas and hop aboard for a delightful, fun-filled evening!

Our evening showing is scheduled for Saturday, November 21 at 6:30 p.m. Screening will be held at the Amentum Center for the Performing Arts, 126 Newberry St. SW. Doors will open half an hour before show time.
