Come join us for a Littles Disco! With so many occasions of there being Daddy/Daughter dances or Mother/Son, we wanted to provide an event where our young kids can bring any special adults or guardians in their life. That means mom, dad, grandpa, grandpa, auntie, uncle, or anyone special to them has a special occasion to take them to!

We are HIGHLY encouraging themed outfits 🪩

TJ Monte Productions will be spinning the tunes, and we will have pasta stations with Marinara, Meat sauce, and Alfredo sauce.

$35 for adults
$15 per child - 12 and younger
Free - 2 and under

This includes pasta, dessert, dancing, and mock tails/soft beverages.

This is February 10th from 6 pm to 9 pm. Call to reserve your spot!

It's now easier to send Downriver Drive-In a message.

Raya and the Last Dragon will be shown Thursday, August 26th at 8:30 pm in Market Center Park following our Thursdays at Market Center event.

Bring your family and something to sit on so you can enjoy this family-friendly movie! It is not a drive-in movie.

This is a free event but there will be popcorn and refreshments for purchase. 🍿

It is with great sadness that we are cancelling tonight's triple-feature event at the Downriver Drive-In. With the winds ranging up to 15 mph and there being a chance of rain, these are not suitable conditions for the structure. 😔

Please remember this is not your typical drive-in movie screen and higher winds and rain can severely damage the equipment.

We apologize for any inconvenience and we hope to see you again in the future. Please have a safe and Happy Halloween! 🎃🤡👽☠️👹
