The Oak Ridge Outdoor Pool will host a movie night on Saturday, starting at 8:30 p.m.

The 2018 movie “The Meg” (rated PG-13) will be shown poolside on an inflatable screen, a press release said. Gates will open at 8:30 p.m. with the movie scheduled to start at approximately 9 p.m. Attendees can watch the movie while floating in the water (shallow end only) or sitting in the grassy area.

Tickets are $5 each and can be purchased at the gate. Only cash or check will be accepted, no credit or debit cards, the press release said.

Concessions will be available for purchase (cash only). Please note that pool punch cards and passes cannot be used for special events, the press release said.

Movie theater etiquette applies to this event. No play swim will be allowed. Attendees should bring their own floats, towels, and chairs. Pool floats should be normal size, not so large that they block the view of the movie for others.

For more information on aquatics programs, facilities and pool operating hours through the Oak Ridge Recreation and Parks Department, call the Civic Center front desk at (865) 425-3450 or visit the department’s website at http://orrecparks.oakridgetn.gov/.

More information will be added as it becomes available.
