Cane Island’s Free Pop Up Drive-In Movie Theater Returns April 3-5

April 3, 2020

Back by popular demand, Katy’s Cane Island will host the return of its free pop up drive-in movie weekend, April 3-5, with three straight days of family fun presented in a acceptable, socially-distant manner.

With a new location in The Estates at Cane Island, the community’s weekend drive-in movie theater is open to the public as it presents popular, family-friendly and PG-13-rated movies on a large, elevated screen.  Cars will be parked ten feet apart to allow for proper social distancing. Pedestrians and bicycles are not allowed.

On Friday, enjoy Angry Birds 2 starting at 6 p.m. followed by Gemini Man at 8 p.m. On Saturday, Cane Island’s pop-up drive-in presents a triple feature: Dumbo at 2:30 p.m., 101 Dalmations at 5:30 p.m. and Jumanji: The Next Level at 7:45 p.m.  Sunday’s first movie, Pokemon: Detective Pikachu starts at 2 p.m. followed by Dark Waters at 4 p.m.

For the ultimate in drive-in fun, enjoy burgers and dogs prepared fresh on an open flame grill by The Oaks Kitchen & Bar, Cane Island’s onsite restaurant. 

To reach Cane Island’s drive-in movies, take the Cane Island Parkway exit off Interstate 10 minutes west of the Grand Parkway.  Head north on Cane Island Parkway one half mile to the community entrance.  Continue on Cane Island Parkway, past Cane Island’s Cane Quarter amenity village to Franz Road and turn right.  The Estates at Cane Island will be on your right.
