WIFF's outdoor movie screenings to be held mid-June on aquatic centre's front lawn
The Women of WIFF event is also coming up next month
The Windsor International Film Festival (WIFF) has announced details of its annual Under the Stars outdoor movie screenings.
Organizers will hold the event on the front lawn of the city's aquatic centre, near the riverfront.
Initially, this was a response to being unable to hold the main festival in 2020 and 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This year, it will run from June 13 until June 15.
"Through continued support from our patrons, community, and partners, we are thrilled to once again be hosting free outdoor screenings at WIFF Under the Stars — the perfect way to celebrate the summer season and great film," said Vincent Georgie, executive director and chief programmer for the festival.
Twenty-three movies will be shown over the weekend including "festival favourites, summer blockbusters, and Canadian programming."
The Women of WIFF initiative will take place the following weekend, on June 21 and 22, featuring six movies and post-film discussions.
