Summer nights in Whistler are made for blankets on the grass, mountain views and movies under the stars. This July and August, Whistler Olympic Plaza will host free outdoor movie screenings on select Wednesday and Saturday evenings.

Bring a picnic blanket, low chairs, a few snacks and an extra layer for when the sun goes down. Movies begin at 8 PM, so we recommend arriving early to find a good spot and settle in before the show starts.

Located in Whistler Village, Olympic Plaza is just a short stroll from Crystal Lodge, making it an easy and fun evening activity for families, couples and groups staying in the heart of the village.
