Former Toronto airport runway to transform into free drive-in theatre this week
Runway Reels is back at Toronto's YZD Hangar, and you can take in a cinematic experience under the stars during this two-night drive-in movie series at a former airport.
The former runway of the closed Downsview Airport will be transformed into an outdoor theatre this week, offering movie lovers a choice between the classic drive-in setup and lounge-style seating for a more laid-back experience.
This two-day series kicks off on Oct. 3 with a screening of Titanic (1997) on the big screen, taking audiences back almost three decades with this Academy Award-winning romantic drama. The event pivots genres on Oct. 4, with a screening of Lilo & Stitch (2025).
Both films dovetail with the themes of the ongoing Runway Rivers installation.
Each night kicks off with preshow entertainment and concession snacks available for purchase before the screenings begin.
The feature films start at 6:00 p.m. each night. Although admission is free, you must register for the event on YZD's official website.
YZD Hangar is located at 34 Hanover Rd.
