Local Drive-In Theater Upgrades to Digital Projectors

Just in time for Father’s Day weekend, Vineland Drive-In movie theater, the only drive-in still operating in Los Angeles County, announced they upgraded their traditional 35 mm projectors to digital projection. 

The first screening to be shown in digital at the Los Angeles landmark theater will be “Man of Steel.”

“The technology of film is continually evolving and improving the viewing experience for moviegoers,” said Juan Gonzalez, general manager of Vineland Drive-In. “As we see these changes happening throughout the industry, it seems only natural to bring the highest-quality projection to the original movie experience, the drive-in.” 

Vineland Drive-In, which first opened in 1955, has adapted to meet consumer and industry needs with several renovations and upgrades over the past 58 years. 

The drive-in’s most recent decision to upgrade from traditional 35 mm projectors to all-digital projection stems from the industry shift to provide a smaller and quieter projector with clearer visuals for moviegoers.

So if you want to take a trip down memory lane, the drive-ins is the perfect touch of nostalgia for a Father’s Day outing.

Vineland Drive-In is open seven days a week with nightly showings beginning at dusk. In addition to bringing the visuals of digital to the drive-in, all screenings are also broadcasted in FM Dolby Stereo sound.
