ALDERGROVE (NEWS 1130) — Movie theatres across Metro Vancouver have been closed for almost a month, but people are still able to take in a show at the drive-in in Aldergrove amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Langley township bylaw officers paid a visit to the Twilight Drive-In at 260 Street and Fraser Highway and gave it the go-ahead to remain open because it is following the rules.
