It won’t be long before summer weather makes its way to Western New York. While you’re making your plans for the next couple of months, you’re going to want to block off some Tuesdays to check out these incredible retro movies that are coming to the Transit Drive-In.
Drive-Ins aren’t just a thing of the past anymore
Just a few years ago, drive-ins were becoming a thing of the past. When the pandemic came, it was one of the few things people were able to do to get out of the house. If it weren’t for social distancing, there is a good chance that most of them would have gone away forever. Luckily, we had the chance to go back to the drive-in and remember how much fun it was with friends and family.
The Transit Drive-In is introducing Retro Tuesdays
If you love retro movies, you’re going to love this schedule. They’ve done a really great job pairing these movies together. They’re starting with the Tom Hanks/Melanie Griffith connection in May. Then in June, they’ve got a classic horror flick night and a singalong night the following week.
