Summer is almost here and the Town of Oakville is excited to present Movies in the Park! Starting on July 10, 2024 residents are invited to grab a blanket, their favourite snacks and head to participating parks in Oakville for a series of free family-friendly movies under the stars until August 21, 2024. Entry and family-friendly activities begin at 6:30 p.m. with the movie beginning around 8 p.m. closer to sunset. Come early to ensure you get a good spot to watch the main feature, have a chance to connect with friends and neighbours, visit the Oakville Public Library’s Library on the Go book bike, and meet Sparky and Oakville Fire crews at most park locations (with the exception of Munn’s Creek Park) to learn about how to be fire safe.
