Going to the drive-in for a double feature has always been a Hudson Valley summer tradition. It is great family fun to get in your car and watch fun movies on huge outdoor screens. Grab your bug spray and blankets and head out to one of these local drive-in theaters!
Be sure to check the website of each drive-in for their details about showtimes and tickets.
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.
