Fans of “The Big Lebowski” will get the chance to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the cult classic June 30 at the Big Lebowski Blast, a movie screening and after-party to commemorate the 1998 movie at Jungle Jim’s International Market in Eastgate.

Ticketed guests for the 5 p.m. VIP screening will receive themed Absolut and Kahlúa cocktails, food, including “Donny’s In-N-Out Sliders” and “The Dude’s Pub Fries,” prepared by Jungle Jim’s head chef and complimentary “swag” bags filled with Lebowski-themed souvenirs.

The VIP movie experience will be held in the new Jungle Experience Center — or JXC — a venue equipped with state-of-the-art audiovisual equipment. The center also houses an oversized 4-panel 110-inch television that will be used to screen the movie.

A 7 p.m. after-party is free to attend in the Paradise Pavilion, Jungle Jim’s open-air, smoke-friendly bar and lounge. Guests there may partake of cocktails at the full bar, mingle with like-minded Lebowski enthusiasts and compete in a Lebowski look-alike contest.
