Description

Release from “That Oregon Life,” Hey you guuuuys!  Fire up your Data-style gadgets, pull out your map to One-Eyed Willy’s treasure, and grab a Baby Ruth because it’s time to head to Astoria, Oregon, for one of the most epic celebrations the Pacific Northwest has ever seen. June 5–8, 2025 marks the 40th anniversary of The Goonies, and the quaint coastal town where it all started is ready to throw the ultimate birthday bash. Whether you're a die-hard fan who can quote every line or someone who just really appreciates a good Rube Goldberg machine, this event promises to be more fun than escaping from the Fratellis in a wishing well.  Let’s break it down: what can you expect from Goonies Weekend 2025, and why should you absolutely be there?  A Trip Back in Time to 1985:  Back in June of 1985, The Goonies burst onto screens with a treasure-hunting adventure that captivated a generation. With a screenplay by Chris Columbus and a story from Steven Spielberg himself, the film followed a ragtag group of kids (a.k.a. the Goonies) as they chased pirate gold, battled criminals, and cemented lifelong friendships.  truffle shuffle, 40th anniversary, Oregon coast, family fun, things to do:  Shot almost entirely in and around Astoria, The Goonies has become a permanent part of the city's identity. Now, four decades later, that legacy is stronger than ever. Visitors from all over the world make pilgrimages to see the iconic filming locations — and this June, Astoria is pulling out all the stops.  What’s Happening at Goonies Weekend 2025?  According to the official Goonies Weekend website, the celebration will run from June 5 to June 8, 2025, and promises a packed schedule of film nostalgia, interactive experiences, and plenty of "Goonies Never Say Die!" energy.  1. Film Screenings and Cast Appearances:  Word on the street (and the docks) is that there will be multiple screenings of The Goonies, including at the Liberty Theatre, a historic venue that perfectly suits the occasion. Fans may also get the rare opportunity to meet original cast members, who will be hosting panels, meet-and-greets, and maybe even reenacting iconic scenes. (Fingers crossed for a Cyndi Lauper singalong.)  2. Self-Guided Filming Location Tours:  Remember Mikey’s house? Data’s zipline adventure? The old Clatsop County Jail (now the Oregon Film Museum)? They're all still standing, and you'll be able to walk the same paths as your favorite characters. Local businesses will have maps available for a self-guided tour, so you can relive every moment, minus the booby traps (hopefully).  3. Goon Docks Street Fair:  In honor of the legendary Goon Docks, downtown Astoria will transform into a festival zone with live music, themed vendors, food trucks, costume contests, and yes: Truffle Shuffle competitions. Vendors will be selling everything from pirate gear to retro Goonies tees so you can come home with the best souvenirs this side of One-Eyed Willy’s ship.
