CANCELLATION NOTICE:
In keeping with public safety measures due to the current COVID-19 climate in Toronto we have made the difficult decision to cancel this event. Thank you for your interest and we hope to have an update for you in the near future.

From the comfort of your own vehicle, you can watch a movie in our very own Parking Lot H.
In an effort to make this event fully contactless and safe for our alumni and guests, we will not have concession stands and encourage you to bring your own food and drinks. To eliminate the number of touchpoints we will also have no access to washroom facilities on site. More important info and rules for the event as they apply to COVID-19 can be found below.
Note that audio for the movies will be streamed directly into your vehicle through your radio. Please ensure your radio is in working order. Details and instructions will be given when you arrive.
