While many drive-in movie theaters of yore shuttered a long time ago, there are still numerous Westchester and Hudson Valley options that provide family-friendly entertainment all season. Most offer double features, with titles changing frequently, and some drive-ins have multiple screens running simultaneously. One theater on our list even offers overnight camping if you really want to make a night of it.
Below we've rounded up drive-in theaters in Westchester and the Hudson Valley, plus some nearby locations in Connecticut and New York City. Keep a close watch on listings, as show times and titles are generally updated weekly.
