family-friendly festivity featuring, live music, Orlando-Harley Davidson giveaways and home-style barbeque.

“This energetic and colorful event allows film lovers to connect with motorcycle riders, aficionados and admirers during the
commemorative screening of this landmark movie, which stars Florida Film Festival friends, Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda,”
said Mara Shorr, Enzian Development and Community Relations Director. “We’re thrilled with this wonderful opportunity to
celebrate the movie with a newly struck 35mm print, and to celebrate summer with the community as well.”
