“The Goonies” and “Raiders of the Lost Ark” are the next two movies to be shown July 15-19 as part of the new accesso ShoWare Center outdoor film series in Kent.
With the city-owned arena still closed because of the COVID-19 pandemic, ShoWare operators set up to offer the drive-in movies in the rear parking lot on a 42-by-23-foot LED screen that can even be seen in outdoor light. The Wednesday through Sunday evening series debuts July 8-12 with “The Land Before Time” and “Jurassic Park.”
There are two show times each night at 6:30 and 9:30, and tickets will be per vehicle/per film. The number of seat belts per vehicle denotes how many passengers will be allowed to each showing. There are 95 vehicle spots available per showing at the arena rear parking lot, 625 W. James St.
Tickets will only be sold online via accessoshowarecenter.com.
