One of the most romantic dates you can go on is to a drive-in theater! You can have a cute set up in your car, enjoy the movie outside if it’s a warm evening, or even rent out a pickup truck & set up a cozy mattress in the pickup bed. Drive-in theaters can be a truly intimate and memorable time for your or even some friends! Check out our must-haves for any drive-in theater experience below!
Picnic Basket
This is self-explanatory! Make your experience more intimate by preparing your meals together then packing it away before the movie.
Blankets
Not only is this a necessity to stay warm, you may also need extra blankets to cover up your head or taillights during the movie!
Chairs
During those warm spring & summer evenings, you may want to sit outside of your car to enjoy the movie! Use these chairs to keep comfy – we made sure they’re cuddle friendly😉
Drink Warmers
You’ll need to keep your hot coco or coffee warm! Use one of these drink warmers to do the trick.
Pillows
We can’t have a stiff back when watching the film so use these comfort pillows to stay cozy.
Snacks & Candy
Of course, you can have whatever snacks you’d like! Here’s just a package of them to give your date options (just in case you don’t know their favorites yet)!
Bluetooth Speaker
Sometimes it’s better to listen to a speaker instead of your car stereo OR if you choose to sit outside then the Bluetooth speaker is perfect for you! Don’t forget to be respectful & keep your volume at an appropriate level. Even though everyone is listening to the same film, hearing it from multiple directions in an echo can be slightly annoying.
Bug Spray
This is self-explanatory, what’s more unromantic than getting chewed up by mosquitos?
Games
Depending on the theater you go to, some offer multiple movies in one night! There’s usually a 30min-1hr intermission between movies so occupy your time by playing some of these games!
