About Rustic Tri-Vue Drive-In
The Rustic Tri-View Drive-In has anchored North Smithfield since 1951, making it Rhode Island's sole remaining drive-in theater. Three digital screens — each broadcasting on its own FM frequency (90.1, 91.5, and 87.9) — accommodate up to 550 cars across a spacious lot approximately 20 minutes north of Providence. The season runs April through October, with gates opening at 6:30 PM and first-run double features starting at dusk. A full concession stand serves popcorn, pizza, burgers, fried dough, fried Oreos, and more. Leashed, well-behaved pets are welcome, and guests are free to bring their own snacks (no glass or alcohol). Cash only at the box office.
