The special advance screening will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday, April 21, with the location of the theater to be revealed when you pick up your passes. “The Pirates! Band of Misfits” will be released in Charlotte on Friday, April 27.

How to get your free pass: Come to the security console in the main lobby of the Charlotte Observer building, 600 S. Tryon St., between noon and 1 p.m. FRIDAY, April 20. You may take a maximum of four “Admit One” passes, while supplies last.

The film is rated PG. On the morning of the screening, it is recommended to arrive early since seating is not guaranteed and on a first-come, first-served basis.
