East Bay Summer Outdoor Movie Round-Up

Our 2020 Guide to East Bay movie screenings is a little different than previous years. Rather than reporting on wide open spaces where families can gather on blankets and lawn chairs, the outdoor movies are all drive-ins and pop-up drive-ins. Here are a few fun places to watch movies after-dark that are not your couch!

Be prepared with face coverings and the expectation you will not leave your vehicle. Rules will vary per location.

More drive-in movies coming soon?

More towns' park districts and businesses with large walls may surprise and delight us with outdoor screenings in parking lots and socially distanced fields. We can't wait! Rumor has it that Wal-mart will be offering drive-in movies and in-car delivery of shopping goods, but we don't know if our East Bay location is on the list.
