In a Facebook post on Sunday, the Blue Starlite Drive-In announced it will be extending its outdoor-movie season through Sept. 15 due to demand.
Tickets are available online at http://www.bluestarlitedrivein.com and start at $27. Drive-in movies take place in Minturn on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and feature a variety of classic films.
Social distancing rules include no walk-in options as well as limited viewings from hatchbacks and no viewings from truck beds until further notice. There are bathrooms available for one person to approach at a time with a mask on.
“If this is a deal breaker for you, then please wait till later in the year to come when we can safely allow that option again,” the Blue Starlite website reads.
Blue Starlite operates a drive-in theater in Austin, Texas, in addition to its operation in Minturn, promoted as “the highest drive-in in the country.”
