We consume media in a variety of ways; through our phones, laptops, smart TVs, heck even refrigerators can now screen the latest blockbuster. These are all convenient in their own ways, but what about experiencing movies the way they were meant to be seen: on the big screen. While the darkness of a movie theater can be comforting, a film under Michigan summer night sky can be even more illuminating. So keep your smart devices at home and experience a movie under the stars at these upcoming events.
Drive-In theaters are (sadly) few and far between in 2019, but you can get your nostalgic fix at the Dearborn Ford-Wyoming Drive-In. Featuring double-features of the latest box office sensations, you can knock out two movies off your watchlist for the price of one. Added bonus: dogs are welcome, just bring a leash if you want to take them outside of the vehicle.
You might not think a hockey arena is a good place to catch a flick, but USA Hockey Arena is here to prove you wrong when their Drive-In Movie Series begins on June 7. This and the aforementioned Ford-Wyoming Drive-In are the only opportunities to scratch that nostalgic itch of experiencing a drive-in movie. The latest blockbusters will be onscreen, along with some family-fun events during the weekend screenings.
