99W Drive-in Theatre

The last time I saw a movie at a drive-in theater was "The Fifth Element" back in 1997; had I known we still had one in our area, I'd have been coming a lot more frequently! Now that I know, coming here is definitely going to be a frequent occurrence! Some friends invited us to see the Godzilla+Kong / Dune 2 double-feature, meaning we ended up staying for over six hours, well into the wee hours of the night! Although they didn't have the wildly inappropriate Dune 2 popcorn bucket, everything else about the experience was awesome! Talk about a blast from the past! For an extremely reasonable price (our ticket total came to $35 for two adults and four kids), you roll on in and find a spot to park your vehicle (closer is better, if you ask me), pop the trunk or tailgate, tune in to the radio broadcast (96.5 FM), and settle in for a long, but enjoyable, nostalgic cinematic experience. The concession stand in the building nearby is similarly retro, with classic monster movie posters, tchotchkes and movie props, an old TV playing the employees' film of choice (Empire Strikes Back, during our visit), and concession prices that don't seem to have changed much since the 90s! Massive popcorn buckets run you $4, $5 or $6 bucks, soda is cheap, and other fun treats, such as a couple of microwaved White Castle sliders, cost you a whopping $3 bucks. Unlike any major movie theater chain, the prices here are affordable enough that taking the entire family won't break the bank! If you're an oldster (like me) looking to relive a classic movie-going experience from your youth and share it with your family and friends, or a youngster wondering what all the fuss is about, 99W is the place to make it happen! So pack up the kiddies, grab some blankets and pillows, and get yourself on down to Newberg, because rain or shine, it's movie time!

My family loves the drive in! Ive been coming here and to the Dallas drive in since I was a kid. Im glad theres still one drive in and we drive an hour just to be here. Concessions are nice and prices are fair. I love that you can vote for movies on Facebook. We try to come at least once a month as soon as it opens. Thanks for lots of happy memories!

It has been 30 years since I have been to a drive in so I was super excited. The staff was great and will be back many times
