This story’s a bit of an edge case, a little weird. The town of Queen Creek AZ, a bit southeast of Phoenix, is holding a drive-in theater on Dec. 20, as reported by the Queen Creek Independent. The venue is the town’s Frontier Family Park, which is so new that it’s a vacant lot on Google Maps.
The free movie is “Elf,” so that’s not the weird part. The event is sponsored by the mayor’s Teen Advisory Committee, and it’s open only to teenagers – folks 13-19 years of age. There’s lawn seating, but there are also a few sports to park and view the movie, so at least it qualifies as a pop-up drive-in. With a strict age limit.
