Wicked and Moana 2 headline drive-in event
A pair of recent blockbusters will be screened at the City Hall Car Park next month as a family entertainment series returns to Hamilton.
A spokeswoman for the City of Hamilton said that on April 12, it will screen Moana 2 and Wicked as part of its Fresh Air Films: Drive-in Edition.
“To gain entry into the event, please show a receipt from any City of Hamilton business for purchases of at least $25, made between March 1 and April 12, 2025,” the spokeswoman said.
“Moviegoers wishing to watch both movies will have to exit the car park after the first movie and re-enter for the second movie with a second receipt valued at $25 to ensure a fair opportunity for all attendees and to prevent multiple viewings on a single purchase.
“This ensures that each entry supports local businesses as intended.”
The spokeswoman added that there will also be a drawing for a gate prize before the start of each of the films, urging attendees to write their name and number on the back of their receipts before they turn them in.
In addition to drive-in parking, a designated bike parking area and a limited seating section at the front of the venue will be available for guests without vehicles.
Lorna Hayward, a senior events co-ordinator with the City, said: “We’re excited to kick off our annual event season with a fan-favourite tradition.
“This will be the City’s only drive-in movie this year and one of three Fresh Air Films events, so we urge anyone interested to make sure they don’t miss out on this one-of-a-kind big screen experience.
“The evening will feature two popular new movies as well as fun pre-movie games and delicious food and beverage items for sale from your favourite vendors.”
This year’s vendors will include Ashley’s Lemonade, Specialty Cinema, Food Hub, the Bermuda Pretzel Factory and The Spot.
The gates for the event will open at 5pm with the screening of Moana 2 starting at 6pm and the screening of Wicked following at 8pm.
