Here are a few questions we frequently get asked:
- How much is admission?
- Do you accept credit, debit cards, or checks?
We can only take cash at the ticket booth. There is an ATM at a gas station less than a mile away. Visa, MasterCard, Discover & ATM cards are accepted at the concession stand. No checks are accepted.
- Does the show go on even with bad weather?
Yes. We’ve even been open during hurricanes! Rain does not affect the picture. We do not give refunds for rain. We may delay or pause the movie during severe electrical storms to protect our equipment.
- Can you tell me what will be playing one/two/three weeks from now?
Unfortunately, no. We might know what we would like to show in the future. However, we are unable to confirm the booking until Tuesday before the movie starts. If we do know in advance, it will be posted on the “Coming Soon” page of the website. Brand new movies generally play for at least two weeks.
- When will this weekend’s movies be announced?
The website, Facebook page, and phone line are usually updated by Tuesday afternoon.
- If I leave, can I get back in with my ticket stub?
NO. There is NO readmission to the theater. If you leave, for any reason, you must pay to re-enter. If the movie hasn’t started yet, and you need to leave, stop by the ticket booth and we can help you.
- Can I watch the first movie on one field and the second on the other field?
Your ticket is for one double feature on one field only. You can buy another ticket for another field at intermission. It is still a bargain at only $10.00 per adult & $5 per child aged 4 to 11.
- How do I apply for employment?
We are always accepting applications. Please pick one up in person at the ticket booth any Friday or Saturday that we are open.
- Can you bring food in from the outside?
You are not prohibited from bringing in food. No grilling is allowed and alcohol is prohibited in our theater. However, we do have a concession stand with very tasty hot dogs, hamburgers, pizza, chicken sandwiches, fries, nachos, drinks, etc. The film companies take a sizeable percentage of the ticket price and we pay our bills with money made in the concession stand. Please keep that in mind.
- Where is the concession stand?
The Main concession stand is located under the giant peach. There is a walk path along the driveway for screen two and a walking path behind the screen three restroom building that leads to the Main Field. We sometimes have a concession stand open on Screen Two when attendance and staffing allow.
- Do you close the gates if it gets full, and what time do you recommend we arrive?
We have sold out and have had to turn people away. You should arrive at least one and a half hours before showtime on Fridays and Saturdays during the summer (even earlier for blockbuster summer movies).
- If I only want to watch the first or second movie on a field, can I do that?
Yes. You may leave anytime you want. The ticket booth stays open until the second movie has started. You can determine the first movie’s runtime by checking IMDB.
- Can we sit outside of our vehicle?
Sure, it’s fun to sit outside on chairs near your vehicle. Just don’t forget the bug repellent and a portable radio. We have a very limited number of portable radios available for rent. Please bring your own, or plan to use your vehicle’s radio. Also, you are not allowed to sit on top of your vehicle.
- How do I hear the movie?
Movie sound plays through your car radio: Main Field – 90.3FM, Screen 2 – 95.9FM, Screen 3 – 105.1FM There is no app to play the sound on your phone. We have a limited number for radios for rent.
- Do we get to watch both movies for one price? How do you decide which two movies go together?
You get two movies on one field for the price of one. It is important to us that we offer affordable family entertainment. We carefully choose our movies and negotiate with the movie studios to offer the best double features possible. Movie studios offer special double feature prices to drive-ins but they often dictate which two movies can be combined for a double feature.
- Can I purchase tickets online?
We do not offer online ticketing. Tickets must be purchased with cash only at the box office on a first-come-first-serve basis.
- Can we turn our vehicle around and watch the movie from the bed of our truck or inside our van?
Yes, but remember that nothing can be higher than the roofline of your vehicle: this includes your hatch, your head, your radio, etc. You must be able to extinguish all interior and exterior lighting.
- How long does the season run and what days are you open?
The drive-in season typically begins at the beginning of March and lasts until the end of November. We are generally open on Friday, Saturday & Sunday nights. Occasionally, the drive-in screens the premiere of blockbuster movies on Thursday nights.
- Can I bring my dog?
Yes! Dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, etc. are all welcome if they are well-behaved and don’t disturb others. Dogs must be on a leash. Please be sure to clean up after your pet. No pets are allowed in the food service area.
- Do you offer a discount for groups, students, military, first responders, teachers, etc.?
No. We offer everyone the lowest price possible while being mindful of studio demands and the operational costs of running the drive-in. We believe that $10 for adults aged 12 & over, $5 for kids 4 to 11, and no charge for kids 3 & under is a bargain.
- Can you donate passes to my school, group, etc.?
We are a true Mom & Pop business. We get a large number of requests for donations. We can not respond to them all. We do a few charity events throughout the year to give back to the community in a way that works best for us.
- I have a group that wants to get together for an event. What are my options:
If it is a small group (less than 50 cars), please plan to arrive early so you can all park together. If you wish to pay for everyone in your group, give them the money in advance or stand at the front and pay for them as they arrive. If it is a large group, you might want to consider a screen rental. Message us on Facebook for more details regarding the rental of a field. Please note that fields can only be rented on weekdays from May through July.
- Help! My car battery is dead!
Please come to the concession stand and we will dispatch someone with our jump starter for only $2.00.

How do I turn off my automatic lights?
All interior and exterior lights should be off during the movies.
For 98% of the vehicles manufactured, there are a couple of easy ways to disable the lights:
OPTION A
Power off everything (remove the key if equipped)
Engage parking (emergency) brake
Power on (insert the key and turn to ACC position -or- push Start button once without foot on brake)
On most vehicles, this will keep headlights off
OPTION B
On some newer vehicles equipped with touchscreens, you must go through the settings options on-screen to
disable the headlights from coming on. These will vary according to the make of the vehicle. Be sure to familiarize yourself with your vehicle before attending.
OPTION C
Turn off your vehicle and use a portable radio. We have a limited number for rent in the concession stand. $5 rental fee plus leave your license and a $5 deposit.
