Holiday Drive-In 2025 Season Pass Contest

How would you like to go to the Holiday Drive-In for free all season long? 99.5 WKDQ has your chance to win the one and only season pass for the 2025 season.

It's no secret that Holiday Drive-In is one of the hot spots in the Tri-State during the summer months. This drive-in theater, located in Reo, Indiana, has been a staple of the Evansville area since it opened its first screen in 1955. That makes 2025 its 70th anniversary! The Holiday Drive-In is now one of the oldest American drive-in theaters still in operation. Plus, it's the largest drive-in (with the most screens) in the state of Indiana. While drive-ins have declined throughout the years, that hasn't affected the Holiday Drive-In much. Still, 70 years later, moviegoers eagerly await the drive-in theater's opening weekend throughout the cold winter months to go outside and enjoy movies under the stars. Honestly, it is my favorite place to visit during the summer in our area. The good news for us today is that we don't have too much longer to wait!

When Does the Holiday Drive-In Open in 2025?

Holiday Drive-In's new website just announced that they will soon be opening up for the season. Mark your calendars for May 2nd, when the six-screen drive-in theater will officially open up for the 2025 season. They will be open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. While movies for the opening weekend will be announced at a later date, at least we know when we can start visiting the drive-in for the summer.

As a Holiday Drive-In fanatic, I can tell you that typically, not all six screens will be operating on the first weekend. The drive-in usually kicks off the season with two screens opening on the first weekend (Screens 1 and 2) and will add the other screens as the season progresses. During the summer, Holiday Drive-In is open every night. They also typically host a few dusk til' dawn nights, where three or four movies will play on Screen 1.
