The Alameda County Fairgrounds will host a pop-up series of drive-in movies this summer, starting next Friday evening (June 12) with “Raiders of the Lost Ark.”
Designed as a family activity that aligns with social-distancing guidelines, the drive-in series will also allow fair officials to offer new entertainment at the Pleasanton fairgrounds during a summer in which the annual fair has been canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The series, which will feature classic movies on Fridays and Saturdays through Aug. 1 (except July 4), has the first four movies scheduled: “Raiders” on June 12, “The Goonies” on June 13, “Jurassic Park” on June 19 and “Grease” on June 20.
Attendees will view the movies from their cars. Guests will listen to the movie audio through their vehicle radio or on a portable FM radio. Show time will be when darkness arrives, but not before 8:45 p.m.
A parking fee of $25 per vehicle will be charged in advance online (no motorcycles allowed); the fee includes admission to the movie and one free ticket to the 2021 Alameda County Fair. For more information, visit AlamedaCountyFair.com.
How do we know when tickets for a particular movie go on sale?
Where will the movie screen and parking be? I am trying to visualize where on the Fairgrounds they will hold this. Sounds like fun.
$25 a car for movies that were made in the 80’s? No thank you.
That seems pretty pricey for the movies made in the previous century but it also sounds like fun. And oh boy, we do deserve some entertainment. If the screen is well placed and big enough then perhaps a family or friends of four can come in one vehicle and watch the movie in comfort and great company. Provided they all see the screen equally well.
