Jesup Drive-In

Jesup Drive-In is a drive-in movie theater located in Jesup, Georgia, United States. It operates as a seasonal outdoor cinema, typically running Friday through Sunday during the summer months and opening for select periods during Christmas break. The venue shows double features, meaning admission includes access to two movies per night, with screenings beginning after dark due to outdoor conditions. The drive-in experience at Jesup is designed around car-based viewing and a social, family-oriented atmosphere. Audio is delivered through an FM radio signal, requiring each vehicle to have a working radio. Parking is arranged with two vehicles between each set of poles, and drivers are asked to turn off exterior and interior lights, covering them if necessary. Attendees often arrive more than two hours before showtime to secure parking spots, set up chairs, or bring picnics with the purchase of a food permit. A playground area is available for children, and the atmosphere is generally social, with patrons engaging with others nearby. Concessions include a concession stand offering typical theater fare. Guests are allowed to bring their own food and beverages if they purchase a $20 food permit, which supports operational costs. Admission prices are $9 for an adult, $8 for a child, or $20 for a car load. A car is considered a standard car or pickup truck; buses, vans, and larger SUVs are not eligible for a car pass and require individual tickets, with larger vehicles parking at the back. For safety, the speed limit is strictly enforced at 10 mph or less due to pedestrian traffic. The theater is currently closed for the season and is scheduled to reopen in spring 2027. It maintains an official website at jesupmovies.com, where showtimes, tickets, and menu information for Screen 1 and Screen 2 are available. As a drive-in, Jesup Drive-In represents a nostalgic and community-focused form of cinema that remains a distinctive entertainment option in southeast Georgia.
