Field Day Huntsville: Food, Fun, and Free Family Movies All October

Field Day is Huntsville’s all‑in‑one hangout for relaxed nights out: chef‑curated meals and shareable plates, inventive cocktails and family‑friendly drinks, plus arcade‑style games inside and a sunny outdoor patio centered around a giant LED screen. Whether you’re bringing kids, meeting friends, or planning a date night, Field Day blends playful energy with polished food and drink for something everyone can enjoy.

Free Family Movie Night (Wednesdays in October)

Bring the whole crew to Field Day every Wednesday in October for Free Family Movie Night. Films start at 6:00 PM, arrive early to grab dinner, claim the best patio seats by the giant LED screen, and settle in for an evening of cozy, family-friendly entertainment.

October lineup

Oct 1, The Addams Family (2019) (PG): Quirky, spooky comedy perfect for kicking off the month.

Oct 8, Hotel Transylvania (PG): Family-friendly laughs with beloved monster characters.

Oct 15, Halloweentown (NR): Nostalgic, magical fun for kids and grown-ups who love Halloween classics.

Oct 22, The Nightmare Before Christmas (PG): Tim Burton’s stop‑motion favorite blends spooky and festive in equal measure.

Oct 29, DOUBLE FEATURE - Hocus Pocus 1 & 2 (PG): A bewitching, laughter‑packed evening with both cult favorites back‑to‑back.

What to Expect

Games for everyone: A rotating lineup of indoor arcade and table games that keep kids buzzing while adults relax or join the fun.

Huge outdoor screen: A roomy patio centered on a giant LED screen with clear sightlines and comfy seating for family viewing.

Chef-driven menu: Thoughtful, shareable plates and elevated comfort food plus a creative cocktail and mocktail list for grown‑ups.

Welcoming atmosphere: Laid‑back, family-first vibes that work for date nights, friend groups, birthday parties, and kid‑focused outings.

Tips for the Best Night Out

Arrive early (5:00–5:30 PM): Beat the dinner rush, secure prime patio seating, and let kids burn off energy before lights dim.

Share to simplify: Order appetizer platters or a family meal so little moviegoers stay full and happy without juggling multiple plates.

Dress for fall evenings: Check the forecast and bring layers or a light blanket; patios cool quickly after sunset.

Bring essentials: Pack wipes, a small flashlight, and cozy socks for younger children to stay comfortable during the screening.

Plan for the crowd: Call ahead or reserve space if you’re coming with a large group, especially for the Oct 29 double feature.

Parking and arrival: Allow extra time for parking and walk‑up lines on popular nights; arriving 30–45 minutes early gives you stress‑free seating.

Buffet Bliss or Southern Swing-and-a-Miss? A Bite at Kacey’s in Huntsville

  Walk through the doors of Kacey’s Country Cooking in Huntsville and you’re greeted by the comforting smell of fried chicken, collard greens, and cornbread that could double as perfume for any true Southerner. This is where the buffet line reigns supreme, the sweet tea flows endlessly, and dessert is always just an arm’s reach away. For many locals, Kacey’s is a comfort food paradise. Fans brag about the fried green tomatoes, juicy pork chops, slow-cooked beef tips, and banana pudding that deserves its own holiday. The staff are another highlight—quick with refills, friendly enough to feel like family, and the kind of people who can make a buffet feel like Sunday dinner at grandma’s. But Kacey’s has its critics too. Some diners rave about “the best bang for your buck in town,” while others complain that the food sometimes veers into “straight-from-the-can” territory.
