FOX 2 – Canterbury Village won’t be able to raise the curtain on plans for drive-in movies just yet.
In a Facebook post, officials say that “Governor Whitmer has just shut down our safe and family friendly movie nights.”
The plans were scuttled due to the drive-in exceeding the proper social distancing guidelines as set by Whitmer. The plans was to allow 165 cars for the five-acre field with social distancing enforced.
“This was going to be a great event to make families feel normal again, even for just a few hours,” the release said.
However, Canterbury Village says the move is only temporary – saying the drive-in will be postponed but not canceled.
“All tickets will be valid for the new dates listed below. If you can’t make the new date, we will issue you a refund,” the release said. “You will be receiving an email from Big Tickets. FYI – If you request a refund, someone else will purchase your ticket and you won’t be able to get in that show and have to buy for another date.”
Canterbury Village says refund requests should be sent to [email protected] Refunds will take 2-3 days to hit your account.
