Fresh Air Cinema

A good rep: Independent cinemas in Vancouver

Ok, so it’s not necessarily independent cinema, but this unique summertime event is not to be missed. Cozy in with your picnic blanket, cushions and snacks with a few thousand of your neighbours as the sun sets behind Stanley Park and the massive outdoor screen illuminates with some of your all-time childhood favourites: Goonies, Stand By Me, Pretty in Pink, The Princess Bride. The Summer Cinema Series presented by Fresh Air Cinema is an ideal way to spend a Tuesday night in summer, and the best part? It’s free. July to September at Second Beach.
