Free Gelato Tuesday At Millennium Park For Summer Film Series

CHICAGO, IL — Don't want to munch on popcorn while you're enjoying Chicago's Summer Fillm Series at Millennium Park? A gelato company is letting audience members try another snack option for free.

Talenti Gelato & Sorbetto is giving away 15,000 pints of its cold confection from noon to 9 p.m. Tuesday, June 27, at the park's Pritzker Pavillion (while supplies last), according to Time Out Chicago. The free flavors include Double Dark Chocolate, Vanilla Chai and Cinnamon Peach, which usually sells between $4.99 to $5.99 a pint.

Gelato is an appropriate sweet treat to eat given Tuesday's movie. The series will be screening "Julie and Julia," which tells the story of Julia Child (Meryl Streep) and the New York food blogger (Amy Adams) who tries to emulate her.
