What To Expect At Missoula's Dive-In Movie Night This Weekend

Imagine lounging in a huge heated pool and taking in a beloved family-friendly movie.

DIVE IN MOVIE

That's what is waiting for fans of swimming this Saturday evening, January 17, at Currents Aquatics Center in Missoula. But heck, you don't even have to be that much of a swimmer to relax in the water while taking in the film.

Make a splash at Dive-In Movie Night. Currents sets up a giant inflatable screen on the pool deck and shows a family-friendly film while you float, swim, or lounge in the water. Bring your suit, grab a tube, and enjoy a movie under the lights at the pool.
