Main Street Toccoa Offering ‘Dinner and a Movie’

Main Street Toccoa is holding a new event series this Fall for three weeks on Saturday night.

It’s called “Dinner and a Movie at the Ritz.”

On September 17, September 24, and October 1, the city will show a movie at 7 p.m. at the Ritz Theatre at the Schaefer Center.

As part of this, Main Street Toccoa Events Coordinator Sharon Crosby said that people who want to both enjoy the movie and have dinner beforehand can do so by buying one pass that will help with both.

“Working together with three of our downtown restaurants, we are going to be sponsoring ‘Dinner and a Movie’,” said Crosby. “We have ‘Pizzazz Passes’ that are available for people to come. It is a $15 value for $9. If people would like to go to dinner at one of the three restaurants that night, then they can have $10 off of their meal and then they will get a ticket to go to the movie that night at the Schaefer Center.”

The participating restaurants are The X-Factor Grill, the Rebel Cafe, and Shirley’s Sole Food Cafe.

The passes for $10 off dinner and one admission to the movie will be available at the restaurants.

Tickets will be available for the just the movie for $5 each at the Schaefer Center the night of each show.

The movies are “Captain America: Civil War” on September 17; “The King’s Speech” on September 24; and “Red Tails” on October 1.

Crosby said the city is looking forward to this new event.

“We are real excited,” said Crosby. “We think that this will help encourage people on Saturday night to visit one of our downtown restaurants and then enjoy a great movie.”
