Starlite Drive In Scary Movies this Fall

Starlite Drive-In’s scary movies are back this year. It is definitely the best movie deal in town, not to mention a great Family Fall Event. The Starlite Drive-In in Wichita, KS, gives you the experience of going to an old-fashioned drive-in movie – something that many cities no longer offer – but with upgraded sound and video. It’s $10 for a single ticket, or only $20 for a carload, for their nights of scary movies this fall. Sales tax is additional.

Moviegoers can bring lawn chairs to sit outside in nice weather (as long as they aren’t taking up a second parking spot). And well-behaved pets on leashes are welcome. Check out our latest Movie Deals in Wichita article.

 

Starlite Drive-In Prices

This is a special offer of only $20 per carload, which is always fun because you get to play “clown car” with all your family and friends!

The snack shop offers refreshments at very reasonable prices. Do consider purchasing food from the snack shop during your visit. The Starlite’s owner told me that film studios can take up to 80% of box office proceeds, so strong support of the snack bar is crucial for them to stay open.
