A Blast from the Past

Monroe Gets a Drive In Theatre

By Stephen Carroll August 27, 2020

Its been a long time since a new movie theater came to town to give us a fresh user experience, and its been an even longer time since the drive in theater has seen any cars. Pardon our dust as we bring an outdoor theater and event center to the twin cities. Currently, we are in phase 1 of 4 that will take place over the next few months as we settle in and provide some family friendly safe and enjoyable covid entertainment. We will host movies, live bands and food trucks for the entire community to enjoy as well as cater to private functions such as birthday parties, team building opportunities, homecomings and much more. 

Whether it's a blind date, taking the family out for a movie, our goal is to bring the family closer together and create memories that can be treasured for years to come. I have had the pleasure to listen to many different drive in stories all the way from first dates to an awe struck 4 year old who was mesmerized by a 22 foot tall Elsa from Frozen 2. Young and old alike have been glad that the drive ins are back and many say its like they never left, except now they don't have to worry about the radios not working because of new technology.

We will be hosting a wide variety of films featuring some of the finest food trucks the Twin Cities have to offer along with popcorn, chili cheese nachos, candy and cokes to bring you the authentic drive in feeling. Not to mention we deliver the food to you, so no more missing your favorite part of the movie waiting on food items. 

We have some big events planned like The Louisiana Singer Song Writer Festival, Trunk or Treat for Halloween, Halloween-themed films with best costume awards and more! And we definitely can not forget about Santa Clause making an appearance in December. 

We look forward to seeing you and your family so come out and enjoy this unique experience with us. Tell your friends and bring a car load. This new Drive In Theatre is located at 1101 Louisville Avenue in Monroe.
