Numerous double-features will run throughout the evening, per the theater’s website. “Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie” has only one screening planned, while “Toy Story 5” will play three times. The other four films are scheduled to play twice.
What else can West Wind Drive-In guests do at free movie night?
While young moviegoers wait for their movie of choice to begin, they can have screen-less fun with bounce houses, music and other “family activities” at the theater.
Though outside food is welcome at the drive-in theater, guests can also go to the lobby, where concessions stands have classic movie snacks for sale. On Thursday, nachos will cost $2 (normally $6.75).
In addition to popcorn, candy and slushies, drive-in guests can purchase pizza, hot dogs, chicken wings and tenders, alcoholic beverages and more.
