Quest University is inviting locals to join in on the magic of cinema under the stars with Summer Movie Nights.
During the four-weeks of Quest Summer Movie Nights, the community can gather on the Quest campus to enjoy a family-friendly film, free of charge.
The event is supported by Fortis BC, Sea to Sky Gondola, Squamish Connector, Garibaldi Active Wellness, Nesters Market, Urban Alpine, Grounded Sustainable Grocer, and the Lovacore food truck.
“I am excited that we have the opportunity to open our campus up to the community for a series of movie nights this summer,” says Quest University president George Iwama.
This year’s exciting lineup includes some all-time favorite movies. Blacksmith Will Turner teams up with eccentric pirate “Captain” Jack Sparrow to save his love, the governor’s daughter, from Jack’s former pirate allies, who are now undead in Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl which was shown on July 22.
Iron Man, the superhero movie that kicked off the Marvel Universe movies, will be the feature on August 5. After being held captive in an Afghan cave, billionaire engineer Tony Stark creates a unique weaponized suit of armor to fight evil.
On August 19, come watch Monsters University and take a look at the relationship between Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal) and James P. “Sully” Sullivan (John Goodman) during their days at Monsters University, when they weren’t necessarily the best of friends.
On September 3, see Emma Stone’s Academy Award-winning performance in La La Land. While navigating their careers in Los Angeles, a pianist and an actress fall in love while attempting to reconcile their aspirations for the future.
All movies will begin at dusk. Bring blankets and chairs to stake out your spot on the lawn. Remember to dress for the weather and cooler night air.
Please make sure to check the website for exact start times as times may change to match sunset hours. Seating will open one hour prior to dusk. The event will be held rain or shine. Movie showings will move to an indoor venue on campus in the event of rain.
Dana Hospitality will be providing a variety of fun snack boxes and beverages for purchase, along with free bottomless popcorn.
