Already established drive-in movie theatres are wondering if new rules banning the gathering of more than 50 vehicles during the COVID-19 pandemic apply to them.
Brian Smith, owner and operator of the 250-lot Starlight drive-in located in Enderby, B.C., would only say “we are currently seeking further clarification,” in an email.
The North Okanagan drive-in movie theatre, opened in 1996, says its moved to an online reservation system, limited attendance, simplified the pricing structure and scaled back hours and activities, all to comply with provincial health and safety guidelines. “Our current operations continue at 50% or less capacity,” the website says.
