You feel like you have gone back in time to the 50s and 60s. Wish there were more drive-in movies in our country. We lived in Wichita for 10 years and this was one of our favorites. We went at least 1 or 2 Saturdays a month. Our grandchildren that it was great to sit in loung chairs or on... More

My son takes his family at least once a summer...it's a familyl tradition. We, ourselves, have not gone in awhile but it's one of the last 400 drive-ins left in the U.S.

Starlite is a great place to go with friends or family. They JUST converted to digital projection and sound, which greatly improved their movie qualities. Very reasonable prices (especially during $12 nights). Can't wait to go back.

Living in the UK we don't get a chance to go to drive-in theatres so this was a must do even though we were staying 40 miles from Wichita. I'm glad we did it. It was a unique (for us) experience sitting in the car with speakers hanging from the window while watching a giant screen and stuffing ourselves with... More

Took our 11 year old to see The Lorax. Great memories made while watching a timeless movie. Definitely something that lots of kids don't get to do nowdays. The staff was friendly and other moviegoers were as well.

What's not to like about a Drive- IN? Great family friendly movies on one screen and other fare on the other screen. Great supply of goodies at the snack bar. I can't wait till springs comes so I can go again.

It is just a lot of fun to go to a drive-in theatre and Wichita is lucky to have one that is really kept in good shape!

A great place for family and friends to enjoy a more relaxed movie atmosphere. You can interact more than a movie theater and enjoy starry nights when there's good weather. I never stay for the 3rd movie, but getting 2 can be a value if you like both of them. The only downside I have of the drive-in is that... More

This is an AWESOME family experience. We try to go once or twice a year. We will be moving closer in a couple months and will surly go more often. It is a great value even if you only go for the first movie.
