We have searched the Hudson Valley for drive-ins. Below are the places that we found in our search. Be sure to check the website of each drive-in for their details about opening. Each group has determined its own method of implementing social distancing. And its own way of accepting reservations.
Tips for making your movie adventure a fun time
- Be respectful of those around you as we practice social distancing. And observe the regulations established by the local theater.
- Bring bug spray
- Bring blankets for little ones
- Clean your car window (who needs to watch a movie through bugs on the glass!)
- Bring jumper cables (patrons sometimes drain their battery unknowingly, or you can help a neighbor who drained theirs.)
- Try and buy your snacks at the snack counter (that's where the drive-ins make their profit helping to ensure they'll be around next summer.) Be sure to observe the rules established about ordering and picking up food.
