VANADU Drive-In 2026

VANADU Drive-In is the premiere drive-in van cruise event, and it's an invitation for both classic and contemporary van owners and enthusiasts to bring their rigs out to America's oldest drive-in for a night out under the stars! Whether you drive a classic boogie, pile of rust, wacky import, or tricked-out overlander, you're welcome to come show off your setup and mingle with fellow vanners in this fun and famous annual event! Admission is open and available to the public. Purchasing tickets in advance is strongly encouraged. VAN Overnight Pass pre-registration is open to all vans regardless of year, make, or model. No trailers or camping tents are permitted. NON-VAN Overnight Pass pre-registration is open to all year, make, and model cars that are not vans. No trailers or camping tents are permitted. Guests who purchase the Overnight Pass for their vehicle are welcome to stay and hang out on the drive-in lot after the scheduled features. We will have our theater-operated fire pit running (weather permitting). Overnight Passholders may stay until 12:00pm on Sunday, Nov. 8th. Restroom facilities will remain open all night. We will be happy to provide resources for local campgrounds/hotels for those looking to stay elsewhere. Please review or our theater policies, as they still apply for this event https://www.shankweilers.com/rules No fires or open flames not sanctioned by drive-in management. Gates open at 4:00pm for Vans and 5:30pm for everybody else. Our movies will be announced closer to the event.
