Classic ‘Grateful Dead Movie’ comes to Valley big screens for one night

Celebrate band’s 60th anniversary in August

Posted

The Grateful Dead will celebrate their 60th anniversary with a highly anticipated return to big screens for the annual theatrical event “Meet-Up At The Movies” worldwide on Thursday, Aug. 14.

For a limited time only, this cinematic event allows fans to celebrate the enduring legacy of the Grateful Dead. Rhino Entertainment and Trafalgar Releasing present the Dead’s eponymous film “The Grateful Dead Movie.” This fan-favorite cult classic follows the legendary band on what at the time was believed to be their final performances, a five-night run at San Francisco's Winterland Ballroom in October of 1974, the final night billed as “The Last One.”

Featuring stellar live performances, mind-bending animation, interviews with band members and crew, the film has a rare focus on the band’s fans and their commitment to the Dead Head lifestyle. Fans can stay till the end for the exclusive theatrical premier of “China Cat Sunflower > I Know You Rider,” a bonus live performance from the October ’74 Winterland shows not included in the official film release.
