Rustic Drive in Movie Theater
Route 146. North Smithfield, 401-769-7601, Open seasonally. The movies usually start at 8:00pm. This attraction is just outside the city borders and is a summer favorite of many Northern Rhode islanders. It consists of three large movie screens that each play two movies per night. It is twenty dollars a car for entry, including both of the movies. You drive up, park the car and turn the radio on for a night of summer fun. The movies are always fairly up to date with what is in the theaters and provides far more bang for your buck. Patrons have the option of bringing their own coolers and snacks or buying them at the store in the center of the three screens. Many people choose to arrive an hour or two before hand to socialize with others, play football and other games or to just relax outdoors with friends. The low prices and freedom of this attraction make it a favorite for all age groups. One of the best ways to spend an evening in the Woonsocket area, or in Rhode Island as this is the only drive in movie theater in the state!
