PARKING LOT: Glendale Sears Parking Lot, 211 W. California Avenue Street, Glendale, CA 91203 

HOW TO:  

Make sure when you purchase your ticket(s), you do the following:

1)PURCHASE A SINGLE EARLY BIRD ($23) or DAY OF TICKET ($28) which includes the car fee and the first ticket for the driver. This gets you into the FEATURE you select by title.

2) GO TO ADD ONS: Purchase an additional $8 per person ticket for however many passengers other than the Driver will be in the car. You can always add people at the gate as long as you have purchased the EARLY BIRD or DAY OF CAR + DRIVER TICKET. 

3)PRE-ORDER ANY CONCESSIONS OR MOVIE MERCHANDISE you would like from the additional Add-Ons. You can pick up all concessions & merchandise at our table in the middle of the Parking Lot.

To attend, you need  a car with an FM radio or a handheld radio you bring yourself. We will space out cars to make sure folks can safely maintain 6 feet of distance. We ask that folks stay in their cars unless they are picking up concessions or using the restroom. Whenever you are out of your car, you are required to wear a mask for everyone’s safety. 

IF AT ALL POSSIBLE, PLEASE BRING A SMALL OR REGULAR SIZED CAR (sedan sized or smaller). We want to make sure EVERYONE gets a great space. SUVS, TRUCKS, CARS WITH HIGH ROOFS/RACKS/ITEMS ON ROOF often have to be parked further away from the screen to avoid sightline issues.

If you bring a larger car, arrive as near to when we open our gates as possible to get the best possible space.  

We are proud to continue our partnership with ELECTRIC DUSK DRIVE IN (https://www.electricduskdrivein.com) into April 2021!

Well, we knew we had to show a movie on April 20th, 2021. Four Twenty Twenty One should be an epic day where movielovers light up the parking lot with their blazing love of cinema.

So we’re showing the Seth Rogen and James Franco starring, Rogen & Evan Goldberg scripted, David Gordon Green directed cult classic Pineapple Express.

Superbad and Pineapple Express launched a mini-genre of Rogen & Goldberg comedies that often revolve around themes and storylines that would be right at home in 80’s teen comedies. Only with a slightly raunchier hard R rated twist.

Here pot smoking process server Dale Denton and his best friend/bud dealer Saul Silver (a hilarious James Franco) find themselves in the middle of a drug war when they accidentally witness the execution of a rival dealer by corrupt cops. 

These are the two people (along with rival dealer Red played by Danny McBride) least equipped to deal with hitmen, gangsters, government conspiracies, and hard core rotten apple cops. All they want to do is blaze and smoke that Pineapple Express man.

Come join us and watch this comedy with a bud. . .or two.

Best always,

Craig Hammill

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FOR OUR PARKING LOT CINEMA SERIES

REFUNDS: 

We can offer refunds up to 24 hours before showtime. Please request a refund through Eventbrite and we will process ASAP. After that, no refunds. Sorry. 

HELPFUL PARKING LOT CINEMA TIPS:

Please make sure you know how to hit off your car headlights before attending. For newer cars, the process is usually:

1. Activate the Parking Break.

2. Make sure the lights are switched to off.

3. Then turn the car on. The lights will stay off unless they are manually turned on. Repeat the process to turn them off again. 

Bring warm clothes, blankets, a few layers just in case it gets chilly and you don’t want to run your car the entire movie (although you totally can if you want).

Make sure you know how to work your CAR RADIO so you can TUNE to any frequency you want. 

The earlier you arrive, the better space/closer to the screen you will get! Once you get parked, you can totally leave the lot, go to get food, come back. 

HOW CAN I CONTACT YOU IF I HAVE OTHER QUESTIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS:
