Thank you to everyone who came out to the Verne over the past two nights for our premiere weekend of Moana! It was definitely a hot start to the weekend, but tonight is shaping up to be much more comfortable. We had a much busier night then we thought last night. We very much appreciate everyone for coming out and we thank you for your patience as our crew worked diligently to get everyone through the ticket booth, and concessions as quickly and efficiently as possible

We do have some much-needed rain moving through the area right now, but it should pass pretty soon. As always, we are open rain or shine, a little rain does not affect whether we show the movies!

If the heat on Friday or Saturday kept you from joining us on premiere weekend, tonight is a great night to come out. With the cooler temperatures, especially after the sun goes down, it's the perfect evening to enjoy Moana followed by Toy Story 5 on the big screen under the stars.

If you can't make it tonight, don't worry! Moana will be here Wednesdy, Thursday, and again next week, showing Friday through Thursday (excluding Monday and Tuesday), so you'll have plenty of opportunities to catch it at the Verne.

We'll also announce next week's complete double-feature lineup on Tuesday afternoon, so be sure to keep an eye on our page for that exciting announcement!

Thank you, as always, for your continued support of our family-owned business. We truly appreciate each and every one of you, and we can't wait to welcome you out for another memorable night of movies under the stars! 🌟🎬

It is going to be a hot one today! ☀️ With a high of 94°F, temperatures should cool into the mid-80s by the time the sun sets and our first feature begins.

Gates open at 7:00 PM.

We know it will still be warm when you arrive, so if you need to run your A/C while you are waiting for the movie to start, we completely understand! Once the sun goes down and the movie begins, we kindly ask that you turn off your engine to help reduce noise throughout the lot and minimize exhaust fumes for guests, especially those enjoying the movie outside their vehicles.

Most vehicles allow you to listen to the movie without the engine running. Simply turn your key to the ACC (Accessory) position or, on most push-button start vehicles, press the Start/Stop button once without pressing the brake pedal. This will power your radio without starting the engine. While this does use a small amount of your battery, we have an intermission between features, making it the perfect time to start your vehicle for a few minutes and recharge it.

Don't want to use your car radio? If you have your own portable radio, that is an excellent way to enjot the shows! We have been asked about the use of apps on your phone, from our testing our FM frequency is unable to be picked up using a phone app. We also have a limited number of portable radios available to rent inside the concession stand for a refundable $20 deposit or a valid ID. Your deposit or ID will be returned when the radio is brought back.

Need to cool off? We've got you covered! We are fully stocked with ice-cold bottled water, soft drinks, ice cream, and all your favorite concessions. If you're hungry, stop in for chicken strips, fries, hot dogs, corn dogs, pizza ranch pizza and much more while you wait, and come back for popcorn, candy, and something to drink before the show starts. Be sure to check out our full menu inside the concession stand!

We can't wait for you to join us and spend the evening watching movies under the stars as we show Disney's live-action Moana, followed by Toy Story 5.

We'll see you tonight at the Verne! 🍿🎬

🇺🇸 Happy Fourth of July from all of us at the Verne Drive-In! 🎆

Just a friendly reminder that we are closed tonight, July 4, so our incredible staff can enjoy the holiday with their family and friends.
Family has always been an important part of the Verne Drive-In, and we're grateful to be able to give our amazing crew a well-deserved evening off to celebrate.

Instead of watching movies under the stars tonight, we hope you're enjoying fireworks under the stars with the people who matter most.
Thank you to each and every one of you for your continued support. We truly appreciate our wonderful drive-in family and wish you all a safe, happy, and memorable Fourth of July! 🇺🇸
