The Northwest Film Center and Portland Art Museum are bringing back drive-in movies to Portland.

The series, called Cinema Unbound, will offer screenings of great movies at the OMSI bridge lot with food and drink and fun weekend themes and costumes. The cinema series is also hosting open-air movies on the Lloyd Center rooftop this summer.

During the month of July, the drive-in movies will feature cult classics, family-friendly movies and nostalgic hits. 

The event opens and music begins at 8 p.m. with food and beverages available for purchase. The film will start at dusk (around 9 p.m.).

Tickets to the drive-in movies will be $40 per car and $50 for trucks, vans and SUVs. You can get $5 off admission with code OMSIDRIVEIN. This may seem like a lot, but if you break it down per person this event is less than a night out at a movie theater. 

The drive-in movies are taking place at the OMSI bridge lot, 1945 SE Water Ave. in Portland.

The event web page gives you a full rundown on each movie, including its trailer, rating and runtime. View the full schedule and buy tickets for your movie of choice on the Northwest Film Center’s website.
