Update 6/27/26, 6pm: We expect the rain to move out prior to Saturday’s 8:30pm showtime, so for now, the movie is still on. Given the rain, however, doors will now open at 8pm instead of 7pm. Chairs are highly recommended, but we also have some if you need to borrow one!
Update 6/27/26, 12pm: We have decided to continue with tonight’s screening! We recommend bringing a chair and will have some chairs available for those who don’t have them. Keep an eye on social media for up-to-date information if anything changes.
In partnership with Good For Her Films comes “As You Wish,” a celebration of fairy tales in film taking place every Saturday in June out on the picturesque back lawn of Agecroft Hall. Each event will feature rotating entertainment to complement the film screening, plus local vendors. Every online ticket purchase will include a commemorative physical movie ticket. This film series is part of the year-long celebration of Agecroft Hall & Gardens’ 100th birthday in Virginia.
On Saturday, June 27th, join us for a film that begins with a grandfather telling his grandson a fantastical story, the one and only The Princess Bride. Directed by Rob Reiner, the film stars Andre the Giant, Robin Wright, Peter Falk, and Mandy Patinkin, with Cary Elwes as Westley.

Please note: Gates will open at 7pm for pre-show picnicking. Guests may bring in their own food and non-alcoholic beverages in addition to purchasing from the above food and drink vendors. Seating for the movie will be on the back lawn of Agecroft Hall. Guests should plan to bring along their own lawn chairs and/or blankets. The screening itself will begin between 8pm and 8:30pm in order to coincide with optimal outdoor viewing conditions while also being mindful of the movie’s run time and local noise regulations.
In the event of inclement weather, the screening and other activities will be moved to Sunday, June 28th at 8pm, and all tickets will automatically transfer.
