Palm Desert Aquatic Center (PDAC) continues its Dive-In Movies program at 8 p.m. on Friday, June 1, with Sony Picture’s “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.” Tickets are $4 per person (no charge for children under 2) and can now be pre-purchased at the front desk window at PDAC, or at the time of event until sold out. 

Entry to PDAC for the movie will begin at 7:00 p.m. There will be snacks available at the concessions stand for purchase, and the slides and splash playground will be open from 7:00 p.m-8:00 p.m. Guests are encouraged to bring towels to lie out on the grass areas; no outside furniture, food or beverages are allowed (except bottled water in plastic containers).

The Dive-In Movies began on May 4, with a sold-out show for “Coco.”  The featured film on June 1, “Jumanji 2” is the story of four high school kids who discover an old video game console and are drawn into the game’s jungle setting, literally becoming the adult avatars they choose. What they discover is that you don’t just play Jumanji, you have to survive it. The third movie will be on Friday, July 6, with Disney’s animated hit, “Moana.”
