Looking for a fun activity the whole family will enjoy? Three of Saskatchewan's provincial parks — including Buffalo Pound — will be hosting drive-in movie nights this summer.

The fun kicks off tomorrow night at Moose Mountain Provincial Park with a showing of The Great Outdoors.

That will be followed by a screening of Toy Story 4 at Blackstrap Provincial Park on Aug. 22, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker at Blackstrap on Sept. 4, and the 2019 remake of The Lion King at Buffalo Pound Provincial Park on Saturday, Sept. 5.

The movies will start at dusk. The Great Outdoors is scheduled to begin around 9:30 p.m., while the others are slated for a 9 p.m. start. Please note these showtimes may need to be adjusted to allow for adequate darkness.

“This year in Saskatchewan Provincial Parks we have worked hard to ensure a fun, yet safe summer,” Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Gene Makowsky said in a press release. “We are pleased to offer drive-in movies as a way for campers and park visitors to enjoy our beautiful park setting, create memories with their families and still adhere to the safety protocols in place for Saskatchewan residents.” 

The movies are free to attend with a valid park vehicle entry permit. Space is limited and available on a first come, first served basis.
