But we’ll take real sunsets\, real laughter\, real community and real memories. Because some of the best scenes in life don’t happen on screen. They happen beside it. \nComing soon to a Lawn Near You! \nThis year’s lineup is packed with crowd-pleasers\, family favourites\, animated adventures\, and feel-good classics that are guaranteed to earn two enthusiastic thumbs up. We’ll be setting up shop (or screen) parallel to the gazebo locate towards the eastern end of the park\, near the Waterfront Hotel. \nWe’ll be highlighting this year’s movie titles\, theme nights\, special activities\, and surprise features throughout the season\, so stay tuned. \nThe best part of Movies by the Lake isn’t the movies alone\, it’s the moments in between. Kids playing before showtime. Friends sharing popcorn. Cheers and laughs during favourite scenes. The collective gasp during plot twists. \nThese are the memories that deserve a sequel. \nSo grab your blankets\, round up your cast and crew\, and join us for a summer that’s destined to be a box-office smash. \nMovies by the Lake 2026 is ready for its close-up! \n___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ \nHave questions surrounding accessibility?  Connect with our team members to learn more about accessible seating\, captioning\, and more. \nPlease refer to schedule below for movie ratings.

SUMMARY:The North Sound
DESCRIPTION:For The North Sound\, songs are a declaration of joy\, a hallmark of yearning\, and a tender tale of honesty. Yet amidst the rawness\, trials and tribulations\, there are notes of hope and happiness. This is the duo at their best: sharing stories in the way they know how. \nForged deep in Treaty 7 Territory\, where the prairies rush towards the foothills\, The North Sound is a partnership between lead singer\, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Forrest Eaglespeaker and vocalist and composer Nevada Eaglespeaker. A fusion of authentic voices\, crisp harmonies and rollicking/burgeoning indie folk-roots rock\, the duo — a married couple — weave and wend through themes of family and connection\, recovery and addiction. As partners who play and write together\, the themes of family\, love and sacrifice are inescapable — in their shared sojourn\, Forrest and Nevada have forged the core of a rock solid collaboration. And at the heart and soul of the group is an incredible story of two people who stuck it out and found a collective voice to breathe life into tribulations and traditions.
