Last summer, with the pandemic preventing indoor gatherings, Foxwoods started a new outdoor offering: drive-in movies.

It was such a hit that it's back this year. It's held in a parking lot off Route 2, north of the casino.

This weekend, the big screen is featuring "Mrs. Doubtfire" Friday, a double feature of "Father of the Bride" and "Father of the Bride Part II" on Saturday, and "Finding Nemo" on Sunday.

Coming up next are "The Greatest Showman" on June 25, a double feature of "Chicago" and "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" on June 26, and 2017's version of "Beauty and the Best" on June 27.
