Lord of the Rings Extended Edition Marathon
Journey back to Middle-earth for the ultimate endurance test of hobbits, humans, elves, and cinephiles alike. Join us for an all-day screening of The Lord of the Rings Extended Edition Trilogy, presented on the big screen as it was meant to be experienced—epic, emotional, and larger than life.
Doors open at 9:00AM with a warm Hobbit-style breakfast before we begin the quest at 10:00AM with The Fellowship of the Ring, followed by The Two Towers and The Return of the King. To keep every traveler fueled along the way, we’ll serve themed meals inspired by the Shire: Elevensies and afternoon tea will be offered in the lobby during the films, with dedicated breaks for lunch and dinner.
Whether you’re a lifelong fan who knows every line, or a newcomer ready to see what the fuss is about, this is the most immersive way to experience Tolkien’s masterpiece. Cozy up, settle in, and prepare to spend the day with hobbits, battles, and one very persistent ring.
