Disney+ has announced a public outdoor screening series of favorite films plus the world premieres of Disney+ originals “Clouds” and “The Right Stuff” from National Geographic.
The Disney+ Drive-In Festival on Oct. 5-12, 2020, at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, Calif. will present the best of Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and National Geographic in a safe and entertaining experience. Plus, each night of the eight-day series will begin with sneak peek trailers from Disney+ originals on the big screen, a classic animated short, or a fan-favorite episodes of “The Simpsons.”
On Oct. 7, the festival will honor Hispanic Heritage Month with a screening of the Pixar Animation Studio film “Coco,” and Marvel Studios’ “Captain Marvel” will screen on Oct. 11 in celebration of International Day of the Girl. The Disney+ Drive-In Festival will also celebrate several movie milestones, including the 10th anniversary of the Walt Disney Animation Studios film “Tangled” on Oct. 6 and the 40th anniversary of “Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back” on Oct. 8.
Guests can join Disney+ on Oct. 9 for a night of spooky surprises and a screening of the Disney Halloween favorite “Hocus Pocus.” And movie-musical fans won’t want to miss the Los Angeles return of “The Sound Of Music Sing-Along” on Oct. 10 to mark the 55th anniversary of the classic Rodgers & Hammerstein film.
