The pandemic certainly has turned life upside down. Summer will look a lot different this year than in previous years, but that doesn’t mean we can’t still pack our schedule with fun activities while adhering to social distancing guidelines. A trio of Allegheny County Parks, in fact, recently announced that it will hold drive-in movies throughout the summer.

Cinema in the Park, a popular summer event, may have been canceled for the 2020 season, but that doesn’t mean we still can’t go to the movies all summer long. We can - at these three Allegheny County Parks.

Hosted by Dollar Bank and Allegheny County, the films will be shown on two separate evenings. One night is set aside for family-friendly movies while the other is called date night.

Boyce Park in Monroeville, South Park, and Hartwood Acres Park in Pittsburgh will all show movies this summer from July through September.

Drive-In Movie Night At The Park offers free admission, although there will be a limit to the number of cars allowed. (That number will be released closer to the first drive-in movie.)
