The parking lot of PB Middle School comes alive on weekends when recently released movies are shown in this classically styled drive-in. Tickets for adults are usually $8 and $4 admission for kids.

Every Wednesday night from June 5 to Aug. 28, the Stone Brewing Co. World Bistro & Gardens hosts a movie night on its 12-foot screen. Movie times are usually 8 or 8:30 p.m. but make sure to get there early as the gardens always fill up.
