Stanford Drive In

09/24/2026

🎬 That’s a wrap on our 2026 season. ❤️

After a lot of thought, we’ve made the difficult decision to close the Stanford Drive-In for the remainder of the year. There were several factors that went into this decision, and while it wasn’t an easy one, we know it’s the right choice for us at this time.

We want to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who came through our gates this season, whether you watched a movie under the stars, grabbed dinner from the grill, tried one of our crazy drinks or milkshakes, or simply shared and supported our posts. Every bit of support means more to us than you know.

But this isn’t goodbye… because 2027 is going to be a BIG one. 🍿✨

Next season, the Stanford Drive-In celebrates its 75TH ANNIVERSARY! 🎉🎞️

Seventy-five years of movies under the stars, families piled into cars, first dates, traditions, memories, and generations of our community making the Stanford Drive-In part of their story.

We’re already looking forward to making our 75th season one to remember, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone back through those gates in the spring.

Until then, thank you for another season of supporting our little piece of drive-in history. ❤️

See you in Spring 2027 for 75 YEARS of the Stanford Drive-In! 🎬🍿✨
