SUMMARY:Lansdowne Centre Drive-In Summer Series Wednesdays
DESCRIPTION:Drive-In Summer Series 2026: A classic summer tradition\, drive-in movie theatres offer a unique outdoor movie experience\, allowing audiences to watch films on a large outdoor screen from the comfort of their vehicles while tuning in to the movie audio through their car radios. As traditional drive-in theatres have become increasingly rare across Metro Vancouver\, these events provide a nostalgic blend of big-screen entertainment and community connection for families and movie lovers. \nTo help preserve this beloved summer tradition\, Lansdowne Centre launched its Drive-In Summer Series in 2015. Over the years\, the free outdoor movie nights have become a highly anticipated seasonal event for Richmond residents and beyond\, offering a unique opportunity for families and friends to gather and enjoy films under the stars. \nThis summer\, the series is returning with seven themed movie nights featuring a variety of genres\, from musicals to blockbusters and family favourites. Both drivers and pedestrians are welcome to attend\, with a designated pedestrian viewing zone available on-site. \nLansdowne Centre has shortlisted two films for each screening night and is inviting the public to vote for the movies they would most like to see on the big screen. \nPublic Voting\nVote here: https://lansdowne-centre.com/drive-in-summer-series/ \nScreening Details\nDates: July 22–September 2\, 2026\nTime: Wednesdays\, showtimes start at sunset\nCost: Free\nLocation: Northwest parking lot at Lansdowne Centre
