Stanley Park’s Free Outdoor Movies: The Ultimate Summer Experience
A Must-See Event for Movie Lovers and Families
Summer nights in Vancouver just got better! Stanley Park is transforming into a giant outdoor theater, and you’re invited. Evo Summer Cinema Tuesdays, presented by Evo Car Share and Fresh Air Cinema, promise an unforgettable experience under the stars. Imagine sprawling on the park’s lush grass, popcorn in hand, as a massive 40-foot screen lights up the night. This is the largest outdoor movie series in Canada, and it’s completely free for everyone.
What to Expect at Evo Summer Cinema
Bring your friends, family, and a cozy blanket—there’s plenty of space for thousands of people on the Grand Lawn. Seating is first-come, first-served, so arriving early means you’ll snag the best spot. If you’re looking to turn movie night into a special occasion, consider the VIP experience. The tentree treetop VIP Zone offers guaranteed front-row seats in comfy Adirondack chairs. But hurry—these premium spots are limited and tend to sell out fast!
Fun Extras and Exciting Contests
The fun doesn’t stop with the movies. Food trucks, fresh popcorn, and pop-ups add to the festive atmosphere. Plus, tune in to The Nat & Drew Show every Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday for a chance to win a VIP seat upgrade. Whether you’re a film buff or just looking for a fun night out, there’s something for everyone.

Why This Event Stands Out
With free entry, a top-notch lineup, and plenty of extras, Evo Summer Cinema is the perfect way to make summer memories. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, this is one event you won’t want to miss. So mark your calendar, pack your picnic, and get ready for movie magic at Stanley Park!
