It's Movie Night

Butler County's beloved Drive-in Theatre is open throughout the summer months showing double features. They offer different movie combos; a mix of new and retro films on weeknights and weekends. As one of the last remaining drive-in theaters in Ohio, Holiday Auto has been a staple for over 60 years!

This 600 car oasis is always a good option for family and friends looking for a night out, offering double (and occasionally triple) features. The films typically change or rotate every few nights.
