Asheville Parks and Recreation has teamed up with A-B Tech and Black Orthodontics to present Movies in the Parking Lot on Thursday, August 27. The FREE movie begins at dusk on a giant outdoor screen in the Parking Lot at A-B Tech parking lot on Persistence Drive.
Asheville Parks and Recreation will offer the community a chance for a safe, entertaining change of scenery with a drive-in screening of the Lion King. A young lion returns to reclaim the throne that was stolen from him and his father by his treacherous and fratricidal uncle after spending his childhood in exile under the care of a friendly warthog and meerkat. PG, 118 minutes.
The movie will be shown in the A-B Tech parking lot in the back of the campus on Persistence Drive.
The lot will open at 7 p.m. and the movie will begin at sunset, approximately 8:45 p.m. No “walk-in” viewers will be admitted. In case of inclement weather, the film will not be shown and the parking lot will be closed.
ENTER/EXIT TRAFFIC FLOW: We ask that guests enter on Persistence Drive off Victoria Road, and exit to the left on Fernihurst to Victoria.
Food trucks will be on-site with food for purchase, and handwashing stations and portable toilets will be provided. Maintaining six-foot social distancing and mask-wearing are required when viewers visit the food trucks or other facilities. Cars will be parked ten feet apart and viewers are encouraged to remain in their vehicles.
No registration required. First come, first serve, no holds, until the lot is full.
