Q. What should I bring with me to the Drive-In?
- Portable FM radio (if you wish to sit outside of your vehicle, or your vehicle's radio does not work)
- Blanket/Jacket
- Portable chairs (if you wish to sit outside of your vehicle)
- Bug-Spray or Mosquito Coils
- Flashlight
Q. Is there an app where I can listen to the movies through my phone?
- No. The movies are transmitted over an FM frequency, and there is currently no way for us to do this through an app.
Q. Are you open when it rains?
- Yes - rain or shine! You can still watch the movie in the rain and you can
avoid the crowds!
Q. How does the parking work at your drive-in?
- We will assign a spot for you at the box office on a first-come,
first-served basis; however, those ordering online can pick their spot in advance. You may not "hold" a spot for a friend. If someone else
has been assigned it, it is now their spot.
- We have installed posts to ensure even spacing of vehicles. There is enough room for 2 vehicles to park between each set of poles. You may be asked to move over if you have not allowed enough room for another vehicle to park next to you.
- Where you park depends on the height of the vehicle you bring to the
drive-in.
- Short vehicles up to 5' can park anywhere, but we recommend the front rows nearest the big screen marked with YELLOW-topped poles. Medium sized vehicles over 5' but less than 6' tall can park in the middle or back of the lot next to a pole topped with either BLUE or RED. Tall vehicles 6' or more must park in the back of the lot next to a RED-topped pole to ensure you do not block the view of others in smaller vehicles. Don't worry -- you will be able to see just fine! We reserve the right to move your vehicle if you are blocking the view of others due to the size of your vehicle.
Q. Are children allowed to sit on top of vehicles to view the movies?
- Yes -- but you must park in the back of the lot such that the children are
not blocking the view of others behind you. Of course, you are responsible
for the health and safety of your children at our drive-in theater.
Q. How does this "reserved spot" thing work?
- You can reserve your spot for FREE by purchasing tickets in advance.
- You will need to know the height of the vehicle you will be driving to the
theater because parking is based on the height of your vehicle. See the FAQ above.
- You will see a map of the drive-in and the parking spots available for
reservation based on the size of your vehicle. Once you reserve the parking spot, no one else can reserve it!
- When you arrive at the drive-in for the movies, tell the attendant you have already purchased tickets. They will scan the QR code that was emailed to you, and then give you a box office slip with the radio station, parking spot number, and additional infromation.
Q. I drive a mini-van. Can I back it into a spot and put the hatch up to watch the movies?
- Yes! If your rear hatch extends above the top of your vehicle when opened, you may be provided a length of twine and asked to pull your hatch down so those behind you can see. Let's follow the GOLDEN RULE at the drive-in and do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Q. Can I move to the other screen to watch the other double feature instead of the one I purchased the ticket for?
- Sorry, but no. The ticket you purchased is essentially a "license" to watch
the movies paired for that double feature. You don't have to stay to watch
the 2nd movie you paid to watch, but if you want to watch the 2nd feature on the other screen, you must purchase another ticket to have the right (i.e., license) to watch it. These are movie studio rules, not ours. We are simply enforcing their rules to ensure they continue sending us GREAT movies for you to enjoy!
Q. What is there to do while we wait for the movie?
- You can take your kids over to play on our brand new playground (adult supervision is recommended).
- We also offer some games free of charge, such as cornhole. Simply "check out" the equipment from the Moonlite Diner by giving a driver's license (or other ID) as a refundable "deposit".
Q. May I bring...?
- A dog? Yes, on a leash. Please make sure to clean up after it!
- A portable grill and/or cooler? Yes, with $10 outside food fee permit, sold at the front gate. Please respect our property; no grilling with open flames permitted directly on the ground.
- Alcoholic beverages? No.
- More than one car-full of Family & Friends? Of course!
Q. What if I only want to see the 2nd feature?
- That's O.K. Be sure to show up in time for the 2nd feature. Yes, you will
still pay the regular admission price.
