FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- A new event at the River Park Shopping Center to play Christmas movies has been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Entry fee will be a donation to a different organization that is selected each week. The details will be provided on their website.

Movie-goers will be able to listen to the movie through their FM Radio and River Park will be offering all movies in both English and Spanish.

All parking spaces will be socially distanced, and guests are asked to wear facial coverings when leaving their vehicle for food or to use the restroom facilities.
