Located adjacent to the community’s Cane Quarter amenity village, Cane Island’s pop-up drive-in has been staked for cars to park at a distance to allow for proper social distancing.    Pedestrians and bicycles are not allowed.  To reach the community’s pop-up drive-in, go to Cane Quarter, 2100 Cane Island Parkway, and follow the signs.
