Outdoor movies in the Treasure Valley

Ready for Outdoor movies in the Treasure Valley?

Everyone has been wondering. Where can we watch outdoor movies here in the Treasure Valley? 2020 brought many outdoor events to its knees, leaving residents to figure out how to keep the summer busy. Pools closed, concerts were canceled, and a lot of people were just bored. Well, the summer of 2021, we are hoping, will be completely different. We've taken the time to gather a list of where you can watch outdoor movies in the Treasure Valley and outside.
