Empire Drive-in pop-up theatre: junked cars, artistic movies, outdoor hotspot!

Ever seen those drive-in theatres on tv? You know, those you see in movies where young hot couples are kissing and snuggling in the back of the car. Well, I think you should check out this cool thing right here ‘cause you can be doing the same!

Ok, so you don’t bring your own car, but he guys from Empire Drive-in stalled 60 cars from the local junkyard that will be “at your service” during the movies. ;) Special movies though. Very artistic. Creative. Kinda weird maybe. But who cares, it’s the experience that counts!
I’m going next Sunday. See you there?
And can we get this in Amsterdam next year also please???
