An outdoor movie series is coming to Edmonton this summer & it’s FREE to enjoy

The only thing better than a summer’s day is a summer’s night! This season, grab the family and a lawn chair and enjoy the higher-than-normal temperatures for FREE!

Starting Thursday, June 27th, 2023, Edmonton is encouraging all movie lovers to bring a lawn chair or blanket to Sir Winston Churchill Square where they’ll be holding a series of fun events and you won’t want to miss it!

Described as the ‘ultimate outdoor movie experience,’ Movies On The Square will feature pre-show entertainment and even food trucks, in addition to showing 3 fan favourites on a three-storey inflatable screen.

It’s going to be fantastical.
