For families missing the big screen, Walmart is set to debut its drive-in movie tour this summer.

In a release posted to their website, Walmart said it will be working with Tribeca Enterprises to transform 160 of its store parking lots into contact-free drive-in movie theaters.

"Beginning in August, Walmart will roll out this red carpet experience in towns across the country for a combined 320 showings," the company wrote. "This family-friendly night will include hit movies, special appearances from filmmakers and celebrities and concessions delivered right to customer vehicles."

The drive-in tour will run through October.

Tickets are free but must be requested in advance. Movies that will be screened include The Wizard of Oz, Ghostbusters, Black Panther, Space Jam and more.

Here are the dates where films will be screened in the Tampa Bay area.
