Free Movie in the Park in Lahaina

Lahaina’s free, monthly Movie in the Park will be held Saturday, February 11 at 7 pm at Campbell Park, 680 Front Street.  This month features “Humpback Whales,” a MacGillivray Freeman film presented by Pacific Life. Narrated by two-time Golden Globe® nominee Ewan McGregor, Humpback Whales is an extraordinary journey into the mysterious world of one of nature’s most awe-inspiring marine mammals. Set in the spectacular waters of Alaska, Hawai`i, and the remote islands of Tonga, this ocean adventure offers audiences an up-close look at how these whales communicate, sing, feed, play, and take care of their young. 

Captured for the first time with IMAX® 3D cameras, and found in every ocean on earth, humpbacks were nearly driven to extinction 50 years ago, but today are making a slow but remarkable recovery. Join a team of researchers as they unlock the secrets of the humpback and find out why humpbacks are the most acrobatic of all whales, why they sing their haunting songs, and why these intelligent, 55-foot, 50-ton animals migrate up to 10,000 miles round-trip every year. 

The seating is on the lawn. Attendees are encouraged to bring mats, blankets, or low-back beach chairs. Snacks and dinner are available at nearby stores and eateries, or attendees may bring their own drinks and snacks. Please, no alcohol, tobacco products or pets.

This free, family-friendly film is presented by Whale Trust, MacGillivray Freeman Films, Lahaina Restoration Foundation, and Rotary Club of Lahaina Sunrise.
