About 88 Drive-In Theatre

The 88 Drive-In Theatre has been the Denver metro area's last original drive-in since 1972, anchoring outdoor cinema culture in Commerce City through decades of change. The single-screen theater shows three films per night — all included in the $10 adult admission, with children 11 and under admitted free. The 40-foot-tall by 70-foot-wide screen paired with a digital projector delivers a sharp image across its 500-car lot, and the theater operates nightly through its seasonal run from May through October.
