Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are set to spar in their final debate Wednesday before the election next month.
The presidential debate is slated to get showings around Arlington, including at Regal Ballston Common Stadium 12 (671 N. Glebe Road), Arlington Cinema & Drafthouse (2903 Columbia Pike) and Barley Mac (1600 Wilson Boulevard).
At Regal, “voters, debate teams, political science classes, or regular Joes” can see the debate at 9 p.m., according to the movie theater. Complimentary tickets only are available at the box office. Small soft drinks also are free, with the purchase of popcorn.
Arlington Cinema & Drafthouse will open its doors at 8 p.m. for the debate. Admission is free.
Barley Mac will have red and blue drinks, as well as special bar snacks, starting at 9 p.m.
“This is surely an election that none of us will ever forget, so let’s toast to it and enjoy good food and good drink, regardless of unravels before our eyes,” Barley Mac says in a Facebook event post. “We won’t toast to either candidate, but we’ll toast to America!”
