Overview
Vanadu Drive-In is the premiere drive-in van cruise event, and it's an invitation for classic van owners and enthusiasts to bring their rigs out to America's oldest drive-in for a night under the stars! Come show off your setup and mingle with friends and fellow vanners in this fun, famous annual event!
Admission is open and available to the public. Purchasing tickets in advance is strongly encouraged. Tickets are available on our website under the “events” tab.
New for this year: We have separated the overnight pass from general admission. This means you can just get movie tickets for a regular night at the drive-in, or purchase an additional overnight pass and party with us in the after-hours! We will have our fire pit running (weather permitting).
VAN Overnight Pass pre-registration is open to all vans regardless of year, make, or model. No trailers or camping tents are permitted.
NON-VAN Overnight Pass pre-registration is open to all year, make, and model cars that are not vans. No trailers or camping tents are permitted.
Guests who purchase the Overnight Pass for their vehicle are welcome to stay and hang out on the drive-in lot after the scheduled double feature. Overnight Passholders may stay until 1:00pm on Sunday, Nov. 9th. Restroom facilities will remain open all night. We will be happy to provide resources for local campgrounds/hotels for those looking to stay elsewhere.
Please review or our theater policies, as they still apply for this event https://www.shankweilers.com/rules
