Welcome back! If you are interested in starting your own outdoor movie event or Open Air Cinema rental business, you can find lots of tips and resources in the Open Air Cinema Community, or contact us directly.
I have fond memories of going to the drive-in movies as a kid. It wasn’t a frequent outing for our family, but was just enough to make an impression. The last outdoor movie I think I ever saw at a drive-in movie theater was “Savannah Smiles.” My folks took us to that one because a family friend had worked on the film. I still remember driving down Fairview Avenue after night on the way home from someplace and craning my neck to see what kind of flick they were showing at the ol’ FairVu drive-in!
What is it about watching outdoor movies? Instead of high quality digital sound and high definition…you get mosquitos and a rinky-dink speaker…and people sitting in your view on top of their cars… Somehow, it’s just fun.
Well, it’s not quite the drive-in, but it IS outdoor movies! If you’re in the mood for a family flick and evening out for the whole family, head out to Settler’s Park any Friday through the end of August. This Friday you can catch “Nancy Drew.” Other upcoming films include “Flushed Away,” “The Water Horse,” and “The Bee Movie.”
By the way, did I mention it’s free? Just don’t forget the blankets and bug spray at home!
Oh, and if you’re looking for a true drive-in experience, check out this listing of genuine Idaho Drive-ins:

hi we do outdoor screenings in the uk . but the weather is not that good come oct it gets cold
Same thing happens to most of us here in the States. Although we have done events in the middle of winter (in the snow) we definitely love our springs and summers.
