We’ve still got plenty of summer left and, right here in the Owensboro area, we have one of the coolest hidden gems that’ll transport you back in time in the very best way.
How long has it been since you’ve packed up the car and taken a trip to a drive-in movie theater? Right across the bridge in Reo, Indiana is Holiday Drive-In, one of the longest-running drive-ins in the country! Originally opened in 1955, Holiday Drive-In has grown from one single screen to six different screens over the decades.
These six different screens feature 12 different movies, so you and your group can enjoy two different films at the price of one ticket! And one of the coolest things about Holiday Drive-In is that they always offer brand new releases, whereas many outdoor drive-ins only feature films from the past.
Holiday Drive-In is such a cute and family-friendly venue, maybe this is an unforgettable outdoor experience. They’ve got old-school concession stands beaming with white and red lights, the smell of popcorn floating through the air, and plenty of space for you to park your car, open the hatch and spread out on blankets or lawn chairs.
Right now, Holiday-Drive In is showing some of the biggest Hollywood blockbusters of the season, including Twisters, Fall Guy, It Ends With Us, Kung Fu Panda 4, Deadpool & Wolverine, Alien Romulus and Kingdom Of The Planet Of The Apes.
You can enjoy movies at this adorable drive-in all the way through October! Holiday Drive-In is open Friday-Sunday and movies run from roughly 8 p.m.-midnight.
