How to Plan Your Perfect Outing at the Wellfleet Drive-In Theatre Complex

Have you ever watched a movie outside under the stars? Even if you have, you probably haven’t enjoyed an experience quite like the one at the Wellfleet Drive-In Theatre Complex on Cape Cod. This classic attraction dates back to 1957, and it’s one of the last of its kind in the United States! Whether you remember these theaters from when you were a kid, or you’d like to try it out for the first time, you’re in for a treat. Plus, the complex features a variety of other attractions as well.

Spend a Remarkable Time at the Wellfleet Drive-In Theatre

Discover Treasures at the Flea Market

You can easily fill a whole day here, and it begins with a fun shopping adventure! The Wellfleet Drive-In’s Flea Market features up to 200 local vendors selling everything from t-shirts to antique decor. You can even enjoy refreshments from the snack bar and beer garden during the main season!

Tip: The flea market is seasonal, and the best days to go are on the weekends.

Play a Round of Mini Golf

Who will be crowned putt-putt champion during your visit? Find out with a round of retro mini golf at the theatre complex! After tallying up the scores, the winner can treat everyone to some decadent sundaes at the ice cream bar. It’s the perfect place to unwind before heading to the theatre for your movie.

Catch an Evening Showing at the Theatre

Lights, camera, action! When it’s showtime, you can grab a parking spot, tune your car radio to 89.5 FM, and watch some of the hottest new movies as you snack on your favorite treats. Just make sure you bring cash because the box office does not accept credit cards.

Tip: While the Wellfleet Drive-In Theatre Complex is a seasonal and weather-dependent attraction, their indoor cinema is open all year long. So, you can always catch the latest blockbuster during your stay!
