We have a specifically designed parking policy that allows different size vehicles parking access all the way to the front of the screen, assuming you are not too big of course. Make sure you park where your told to at the gate, pay close attention.
• PLEASE NOTE: Our parking policy is in effect on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights, and most holidays, and holiday weekends. It is in place to ensure that everyone will be able to see the show. We CANNOT make exceptions to our parking policy, even if you are with someone in a different sized vehicle than your own. Please come early, if you arrive late please do not expect to get a good spot. We thank you in advance.
  Raised hatchbacks or lift backs must not be raised any higher than the roof of the vehicle so as not to block the viewing angle of the vehicle behind you.
• Each vehicle is entitled to one parking space. If you sit outside your vehicle, please do not occupy another parking space, this includes your chairs and blankets.
• For the safety of everyone all blankets, chairs, etc. must be in front of your vehicle, or beside your vehicle not occupying or overlapping into the other space so the other guest beside you has the same amount of room. This will be strictly enforced on Friday, Saturday, Sunday & Holiday nights as we are typically very busy. On slow nights and week nights we have no problems with you spreading out a little bit just not out in the aisle way where cars travel.
• We do not allow anyone to sit on top of their vehicle for any reason. This is a big safety concern. NO EXCEPTIONS!

ON THE GROUNDS

• The SPEED LIMIT on the lot is 10 KPH AT ALL TIMES!!! PLEASE watch for children…
• After dark, please use parking lots only so your headlights don’t disturb people watching the movies. You may want to consult your car operating manual about how to do this. If you still can’t get your headlights off, we have drapes we can put on your lights. Just let the box office attendant know that you need help.
  Drivers are responsible for making sure that all passengers are inside the vehicle and that no other patrons are in the way before moving their vehicle or leaving the theater.

MOTORCYCLES

• We do allow Motorcycles. Motorcycles will be permitted as a car and expected to follow the same rules. We ask that you arrive early as not to interrupt the show after start time.

PETS & SMOKING

• As per provincial regulations smoking is not allowed in vehicles while any child under the age of 18 is "present" (in your vehicle or the ones beside you by way of second-hand smoke). Cannabis is not allowed to be consumed inside of a vehicle, both are considered illegal acts, based on the legislation. (Smoke Free Places Act, NS Cannabis Act). 
• All visitors should not smoke at the drive in. We ask everyone that needs to smoke while at the drive in to do so away from the parking areas.
• Dogs are permitted on the grounds as long as they are well behaved, non-aggressive, and will remain quiet.
• We ask that you please remember to clean up after your pets and put it in the large steel dumpsters not the “Trash Cans”. Please don’t leave their business at our business. Remember to bring the pooper scooper.

• Don’t worry if your battery happens to die we have lot staff that will be willing to give you a jump for FREE. Just come to the snack bar and ask for help.

WATCHING THE SHOW

• Car engines can tend to be noisy and put out a lot of fumes and odors and just cause a nuisance. Car engines MUST be turned off as other guests may be sitting outside their vehicles trying to hear the movie, and we don’t want to interrupt anyone.
• If you must talk, please do not carry on a loud conversation(s) or cause a disturbance.
  We suggest that you turn the ringer on you phone down, and if you must use it please talk quietly or walk away as to not bother your neighbors.
• We ask that once the movie starts any parties or gatherings you may be planning to have, ends, as not to distract our other guests or cause disturbances.
• We encourage you to stay comfy in your vehicle. However, if you must sit in chairs outside of your vehicle you are only allowed to set up directly in front or behind your vehicle. You cannot encroach on the spaces beside you unless you know your neighbour. You can have your trunk open and sit inside your truck bed. Please do not sit on the ground outside of your vehicle unless it is directly in front or behind your vehicle. We do not want you to be run over because another patron did not see you lying on the ground.

PROHIBITED

• Laser pointers are not permitted inside the theater at any time, if you are caught with one, it will be confiscated or everyone in your party will be asked to leave the theater. We are located close to an airport.
• Do not throw objects of any kind at the screen, buildings, cars, people, or at anything else for that matter.
• Climbing on the screen towers is strictly prohibited and off limits. Parents, please keep an eye on your children so they do not try.

HANDICAPPED ACCOMMODATIONS

• We have a wheelchair accessible rest room.
• If you are hearing-impaired, we are broadcasting in FM and you could bring a digitally tuned radio with headphones and we hope that works for your impairment.

MOVIE PROGRAMMING & BOOKINGS

• Most of the time on new release movies we must play them for a minimum of two weeks. We play a few of them longer, usually by converting them to a second feature because its doing so well. If you want to see a movie, you should plan on coming before the end of the second week.
• Second run movies can run for a matter of days or weeks depending on the contract. We try to play and put the strongest movies on the screen we can get. We aren’t going to terminate a movie that is bringing in lots of people unless there is something stronger that we missed out on earlier, or something better coming out. If there is something strong that we missed, we usually bring it in at the first opportunity.
• We always play at least two movies on each screen. Once or twice a year we will run three movies because there were, are or are going to be titles out that we thought, or think would or will be strong together and make a great combination on the screen.
• We always replay the first movie over again, unless its one of those weeks where were running three movies on the screen. But most every week we run the replay so that if you have other obligations, you can arrive nearly two hours late and still see both movies on Friday & Saturday nights.
• We are considered a top run or first run theater. We have always played mostly first run films that are on the top of the box office lists.
• We consider ourselves to be a people-oriented theater, some theaters gravitate towards different demographics, some only families, some only teenage movies, some older style movies. We play everything that is on the top of the box office charts so that everyone can catch their movie at the drive-in.
