We love the drive-in and bingo! We wish we could park at least 1 or 2 rows closer (suv), there are many more larger vehicles nowadays.










Was soooo cool! Awesome staff and can't wait to go back!





Great place to go





Loved it





One star, because they declined a certain local business from supporting them even though without local business, they would be shut down by now! Very disappointing.





Great drive in





Always a late night adventure!





Prices are getting to be to high. I'm done. Went multiple times each year. Cheaper to go to theater for family on Sunday. I'm out.





Love it family fun















A great place





Has a little of everything. Kid friendly










Love it. We will be back





What a fun place to go with the family!










Great





How can you not dig this place!!! I feel like I’m in the 70s ... in the coolest way possible. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. I loved the summer of retro movies. Stay golden Valley Drive in!!!










Took my family to drive in, we had a truck on one side of us with 2 people drinking and smoking and on the other side of us 4 people smoking,I thought it was against the law to smoke with children in your car or in a public place., We spoke with the staff and we're told that there was nothing they could do.I think it's sad you can't take your family to a movie without sucking down second hand smoke all around you shouldn't be like that in today's world! I will no longer support the valley drive in.





Can’t beat this drive in!










Super fun! My wife and I had a date night there. We brought our own food and ate on back of the truck. This is worth the drive!





Way better than a theatre good food and $20 for 2 movies is a steal





I love this place. One of the best ways to watch a movie with a loved one for a private and nostalgic viewing of movies.










A lot of fun. Great fun under the stars





Come for the slushie, stay for the movie!





have been here and have know problem recomending





Very good. Well planned with 99.9, and having jump cables ready! Going again this Saturday










What more can I say. It is a great place to see a movie or play bingo. Canteen is great and the staff keeps everything running smoothly and safely





Good picture and sound quality. Variety of well priced concessions. Bring lawn chairs if it's hot night.





Yes.





Love the Drive-in! I am so glad I can still have this experience because there are not many left





Great classic drive-in experience. Prices are reasonable. Food offerings are the typical fare, nothing is spectacular, but do you honestly expect it to be? Movies typically begin around sundown with a children's feature followed by an adult flick. Intermission is about 15 minutes between the two. Arrive at least 30 minutes early to secure your desired viewing spot.










Have always loved the drive in, but it has gotten a little pricey.




















Classic! My kids had never been to one and we had a great time.










One of the Valley's best places for a taste of nostalgia! So highly recommended.















The movies were great. Experience was fun. Will come again!





Awesome atmosphere, always Loved Drive-In theaters, so glad Nova Scotia still has one. Great way to spend an evening watching movies!





Family Fun!










a nice night out with the family for a movie under the stars










Awesome time, although i wish the movie were a touch brighter, really hard time seeing some parts





I love it at the drive-in. It's inexpensive, good food, you can sit outside if you wish, go in your pj's, and cuddle up in your favorive blanket in you automobile. Staff is super.!! They even have a 50/50 draw.





Great place. The movies were awesome. The staff were very nice and helpful.





Please remember to use your e-brake to make sure your headlights and daytime running lights stay off.










So fun!










Good location. Decent snack food. Good value entertainment.















Always a great time. Sometimes the line for food and washroom cannget long but its worth is.





Always soo much fun





Cant wait till they open again





Great movie!





Hope you're hear for years to come










The setup is pretty good but they close a little to early and they don't advertise when they are closing...the price is a little expensive but the food is great quality.





Had a great time coming here! Watched 2 movies in a row (black widow & cruella)





The Lions club runs this as a charity, great place to check out a usually great flick with old school popcorn and Nacho's with cheese sauce!





Always a fun night out!!!





Fun night!





An awesome experience










It's one of the last drive-ins around.










Great place to see movies, and it supports a really good local charity.










Always a great time !





A great way to spend an evening. Pro tip - if you buy a roll of screen from a hardware store for five or ten bucks, you can cut it to fit your car windows, tape it on with masking tape, and roll them down for the evening so your windows won't fog up during the show. :)










Great environment. Canteen line moves rather slowly however may be contributed by last screening of the season.





Best place to go to see a couple movies staff are great food is awesome and prices are quite affordable










great spot

























Love this place we go every summer to all the events ????????????????????????





I always love going to the Valley Drive In. Hoping to get there this year.





A gem that takes me back in time! So worth it and a ton of fun for the whole family. Friendly, helpful staff















Great location, wonderful staff, reasonable pricing, maybe don't go the day after rain. ????










A lot out fun. Very well organized.





My first experience. It was amazing. Much more comfortable in my car and I can adjust the volume to my liking.










Love the drive in, washrooms always clean, staff is excellent, headlights are always an issue. Disappointed with non current movies being played. The price is great, but not when you've already seen the movie a hundred times.





Absolutely love it..very friendly staff great admission prices.





Always a great place to watch movies !!










I loved the experience I had here! Went for an "Encore Concert" and it was a good time. They do have a canteen (cash only), washroom facilities, and allow you to sit outside your car in lawn chairs or on the tailgate of a truck. The audio quality of the radio station is good. The Drive-In has a wonderful charm. Would love to go back some time!





Best way to watch a movie!










Went to their double feature a few weekends ago. It was so nostalgic to go to a drive in theater, as I hadn't been there since I was a kid. I loved that I could enjoy the movies from the comfort of my car, while tuning into a radio station let me listen from my car's stereo system. We went as a couple, date night, so if you can stay awake for both movies it equates to $5 per movie. That is a great deal!! The canteen also had a variety of food, and messaging their Facebook page in advance helped me find a food choice that was safe for my allergies. I arrived early in my smaller car, so I could enjoy good seats up front. I wandered around the property, eating ice cream from the canteen while waiting for the sun to set and show to begin. I will definitely go again!





They just keep trying to get their hands in your pockets with over priced tickets, and lousy over priced food. Do not recommend if you have a large family or on a budget

























This place is a classic place to spend an evening in the valley. Great for dates, outings with friends, or family time. Food leaves plenty to be desired, but you shouldn't be ordering a burger at the drive in anyways!




















Great way to spend a quiet evening and see new movies at an awesome price





They only accept cash, even for their concessions. So we couldn't buy any snacks or drinks and they frowned upon bringing outside food with you, because it takes away from their sales. Unfortunately our new normal is to not use cash anywhere we go. They also didn't have an ATM on site.





Fun place to watch movies, loved my visit there. Watched lion king and enjoyed it. Recommend to bring a radio and headlight covers as well so that your car battery doesn't drain while having radio on to watch the movie.





Keeping the tradition alive! Love it.










The large cars in the back is kinda unfortunate and I feel like there could be ways around that.










The fun off drive in's the kids pass out and we stay for the 2ed movie





We visit a few times every summer, and especially like the 3 feature nights. With last night being a 3 feature night, we showed up early and got a good spot. After the third movie, we were somewhat shocked to find the washrooms had been closed before the end of the third movie. This lead to a rather uncomfortable drive back to Halifax. All other aspects of the theater are great, although I wish they were a little more strict on headlight policy. It only takes a single car unaware their lights are on the screen to ruin a dark movie for everyone.





I’m always up for a good movie and from the comfort of your own vehicle





Great night out with the Grandchildren!





Great time great great people










A great way to both be involved with your community while giving back to your community; rather the drive in big screen for movie nights or the bingo events! Canteen is tasty and very appropriate prices! #WeSupportLocal





Everyone should come here. There aren't many of these left. A great place to take the whole family or a night out for a couple.





Always nice to see two movies for the price of one compared to the movie theaters.





You just can’t beat movies under the stars. I love bringing my family here every summer.










Great experience.





Always a pleasure. Wish there were more like it in NS and Canada in general.





Bad movies good experience





Gotta support it, it's the only one around





Great place for a night out!










Love it! Brought the whole family and watch 3 movies together. Great price and love that they serve food like fries, popcorn, etc!





Exactly what you'd want from a drive in. There is a concession stand if you don't bring your own snacks. They are pretty good about accommodating people. They have covers for headlights in case yours don't turn off. There is also a small playground on the premises if you have children and want to show up early for a good spot. The ticket price is a bargain if you're interested in the double feature but it is fair even if you only go for one film.










It's a drive in.










Great spot, everyone should experience a drive in!





Its an amazing experience.. cant wait for next season.




















No air conditioning. It's hard to enjoy a movie in this heat.





Amazing place to go for a summer night movie, good parking. The screen is very large and easy to see. A little pricey at 28 per car if your bringing the kids to see just the first movie. Over it's awesome.





Great place. Great food.















It's ok.















Love the drive in. Ĺ





Enjoyed










Current films in a nostalgic setting. A little rustic but friendly staff. Canteen takes cash only.





Just make sure you bring your glasses.










It was a grand time and the service up there was great with handling the snacks and if someone's car battery died, they had a charger ready with spark plugs










Good food, and picture/sound. I think my only complaint is they don't have gender neutral bathrooms. :(















It was a fun time, a bit of rain passed overhead, some small technical issues, snacks are reasonably priced.










Cool place good food highly recommended





Great experience and snacks are decent & well priced





A fun experience and a good price to watch a movie or two under the stars. Disappointed that they continued to admit vehicles long after the show had started was very distracting. Definitely worth checking out.





An awesome family place.





The last of its kind in Nova Scotia, always a great show and a good experience for anyone who likes the movies.





Cash only. Food and restrooms available.





When there a few times





Always love going to the drive in! Sometimes it's disappointing when people complain that there isn't a kids movie for at least half the double feature (honestly though, you can't expect *every* weekend to have a kids movie, there aren't enough and there are plenty of adults who also want to go to the drive in from time to time without seeing a kids movie). The place is dog friendly, just remember to pick up after them. Food is good; fries, popcorn, poutine, hamburgers, hotdogs, candy, etc.,. Everything is cash so be sure to have cash to get in and cash for concessions; there is also a 50/50 draw so cash for that too! Sound is through your radio, and if you don't want to use your car's radio and don't have one of your own, you can "rent" one from the drive in (you put a cash deposit and when you return the radio you get your cash back). They have Twitter, Facebook and a webpage to tell you what movies are playing each weekend and around what time the first movie starts, and they do themed nights like a retro night, triple features on a long weekend, and they have a horror night (my fave) after the season has ended. We try to go a few times each season, some seasons are better for us than others depending on what's released thst year (for example, we're not too keen on driving the 1hr+ from Halifax if there's a kids movie unless it's something like the Goonies or Jumanji; so as long as it's not every weekend, we usually make the trip 2-3 times during the season, plus the horror night). Overall, a fun experience I look forward to every spring and summer.





So fun to "kick it old school" and go to the drive in. My kids always have a blast.










Fun way to spend a night with the family.





I love the prices for family to enjoy an outside movie .the features are always good and me and my son always have a wonderful time















had a guy come over and tell me off because i parked my truck in the center of two poles 5 rows back from the front... moved over, and there still wasent nearly enough room for the people next to us. and the audio sounds horrible. there's this loud hissing that comes through over the radio frequency.. i also needed my radio cranked to be able to hear it. yeah, i'll likely return some day since they're the only thing like it around.. hopefully it'll sound a bit better then.





Awesomely





Excellent bang for your buck!! $28 to take the four of us to see two full length films! Only downside was it was hard for those in the back seat to view the screen. It wasn't nearly as busy as usual and we got a good spot to sit. Bathrooms and canteen were clean and had lots of soap and sanitizer available. Lines weren't too long. We got home super late but that's alright. Absolutely worth it!!!!





Not many places left like this, it's a nice way to watch new and old movies, kind of relive the nostalgia. Canteen is nice there with reasonable prices. Admission seems to be getting pricier but they have updated the projector to digital





Great Family Experience





Gotta go at least once. I've gone many times growing up and even more since. It's a nice little experience to have, staff is always friendly, and the movie selection is usually good.





Absolutely fabulous! The service is amazing, the food tastes heavenly. Highly recommend the poutine. Great time had. Looking forward to coming back!










It was the final night of the season at the drive in. The place was PACKED! Trick or treat for the kids was very well done. Everyone had so much fun! Movies were fantastic! Great job, Lions Club! Looking forward to next season!





Fun spot! Good concession





Was very good! Lots of bugs though so bring some spray!















Cheap for the value





Hadn't been to a Drive In in about 30 yrs maybe. Had a great time watching a double header.










one of a few left in Atlantic Canada.Good experience





Definitely worth checking out! Really nice to experience seeing a movie this way. My only advice would be for them to be a little more active in making sure that taller vehicles move to the back, and lower vehicles to the front. Most of the people were incredibly mindful of this, but there were a few "monster trucks" that probably should have been back another row or two.





One of only three drive-ins left in Nova Scotia...Prices are good...Canteen prices are decent...Love when they have Retro Horror movie nights!





Was great to see IT on a big screen. Was my first time there and will be back for sure










Great prices, friendly staff.





Great way to watch a movie... depending on who’s around. Being an hour or so from Halifax it’s worth the drive to see a movie with the drive in experience. My only issue is the lack of rules regarding smoking. It was about 20 minutes into the movie when the guy next to us lit up a smoke, and smoked another 5 before the end of the movie. Not the greatest experience when it’s too warm to keep the windows up but you also want to breathe clean air. Also they only accept cash (no stars taken for that).





Cant wait for it to open back up!





A fun night out. Cheaper than taking your family to see a movie in a conventional theater.





Great place





Awesome, awesome, awesome










Nice place, well priced.





Great "old time" experience. Love the double feature! The concessions are really good, the fries are AMAZING! Will go again next year even though it is over an hour drive each way!










Cute. Wish there were more





A great place for a family evening event and supporting a great group from the lions club!





Beyond words










Kids learning to cook as they go... can't deliver fries and onion rings at same time..only place I ever got fries that dark brown. But I like taking my wife on a date here....clean and priced right





This is such a great place! I love that they still have a drive-in out here. Everyone needs to experience this!!





Wonderful










Great place just sad I lived in Halifax










We found the movies very dark to see properly and bottom of first film was cut off and did not see the printing very good. Not sure I would go back...





Very nice place every one should go watch a movie on the big screen










Had a blast at Valley drive in.....





We come up here at least twice a season. It's worth the drive from enfield. If your reading this post and have thought about coming here but never have. You must try it once, t It's like Pringles. Once you try it, you can't help but have more. Lol





Not bad. It was my first time going, but we didn’t get any snacks so I can’t tell you about that. I only stayed for the first movie too, which was a horror. I noticed a handful of people came with their kids, which I thought was odd to bring your kids to see a horror movie. Of course the kids were crying through the whole thing. If I could make a suggestion it would be to either play the most kid friendly movies first, since kids don’t stay up as late, then play the movies for adults after. That way we can also show up later when the kids movies are done, and the kids are either gone or asleep in their parents car while they watch. It’s also a little far, I wish Nova Scotia had more drive in theatres. But $20 for a date night is pretty good.

Great place love it!!!










A great place to go on a sunday morning to view the many items the sellers have for sale

























Love the drive in. Also has a great flea market on Sundays!





I went to their final yard sale of the season.





Lions convention










Just loved it . Havent been there in years .We are very lucky to still have it around !










Regulars.. love it here!










Always a great time, never disappoints















Watched so many movies on that screen, dropped in for a daytime flea market. Awesome.










We always have a great time at the Drive In! A true success story of a volunteer organization creatively giving back to their community. Thanks Coldbrook Lions!





It is open air, pleasant surroundings, good to see children playing before the movie, on the provided equipment, and other games for them, just good all around










Very enjoyable





Took my daughter and granddaughter to see Avengers and Black Panther . First time ever for my 8 yr. old granddaughter. She loved the new playground. Awesome place for enterainment...... and won the 50/50 draw of $231.50!










Awesome.....Perfect......










Our favorite place in the valley, always feels like home.





Love it everytime.















Nice day





Had a great night with the family! 2 hour drive and worth every minute!





My wife and I came out last night to watch IT and Annabelle 3. I haven't seen a drive in theatre in about 30 years. We had a terrific time. It's so cool to see the idea or concept is still going strong! We will be back again!!!! Thank you!!!















As always great time, great facility!





Great experience! Staff super friendly





There's a wonderful nostalgia to drive through culture and the Valley Drive In is keeping it alive and well. Double features most weekends with the occasional triple bill. It's worth the trip.





Good night out





Always great





We always enjoy going to the drive-in. There is a fairly new, nice playground for the kids. There is a canteen and washrooms on site. They also host yard-sales and other events here.





Amazing Garth Brooks concert...????????





The movies were very clear as well as the sound. There was not too much noise from kids. The ice cream sandwiches were very tasty.




















Atmosphere is awesome. Fortunately even the lousy movie I saw didn't dampen that.















Love coming here to see the movies. Very friendly and helpful workers there and always a great night out. Best bang for your buck if you want a movie night.





Love the drive-in










Great drive in overall. I wish they had soft drink machine and a few more washroom stalls. Overall though it was a great experience.










Great and friendly staff and its run by the lions club and most of the profits go to charity and 25 bucks for a car load is a hell of a deal when it 14 bucks a person at the normal theater





Love the drive in ! May it be there for many years to come !

























Love the drive in. Fantastic movie selections and snacks are great. Reasonable prices too! Fun night out.




















Best place in Nova Scotia! The kids love it when we take them and my husband and I try and get there for Date night as often as we can :)





Brought the family and we had a blast. The food is reasonably priced, and if you get there before 745 you can find a decent spot to park.





Cash only, be prepared. Very reasonable canteen prices!





Went for the first time ever last night! Had a great time, you can even take chairs and sit outside your car if you want. They are pet friendly too. We watched Spider-Man and had a great time. We decided to leave after the first movie because we had an hour and a half drive to and from, but it was worth it. It is cash only at the gate and canteen. The food is good and fairly priced.




















Great atmosphere, easy to get into and out of, decent prices and very nice staff.





Grrrrreat





The best! My new favorite place to watch movies




















Cheap and fun for all I enjoy it every time I go





It's a fun place to watch a movie. Unfortunately they make mid size cars park in the same area as the trucks so if you aren't early you won't get an unobstructed view of the screen.















The drive in experience is amazing.





Always a great date night or family outing. The concession stand has a lot of different snacks as well as hotdogs and hamburgers. Fairly cheap to go in considering you get to see two newer movies.





Loved it!










Great inexpensive fun for families or getting a bunch of friends together to enjoy a movie. Bring your own snacks or buy from a fully stocked canteen.





Always a great time, and the food is great.










Inexpensive place to take family, tasty food, clean grounds










Absolutely love this place! A great value for your money.





Great place and the staff are wonderful





It's a drive In the employees are wonderful and very friendly.





Amazing family fun when they put on a kids movie. Feels like you are going back in time. Highly recommend.





Hi are the same about what I can





This was a very good experience that I remembered doing with my parents and was fun to share with my kids





I love this place





The new Lion King and Aladdin, wonderful night with the kiddos!










Loved the movie,like the old days





Great movie good times everyone should go to drive in at least onces










First time at a drive in. It was so much fun!! Picture quality and sound was great. Food was not good. My husband ordered a cheese burger and they gave him a super thin patty on a plain bun and handed him an individual cheese slice to put on it himself





Really enjoyed myself!





Awesome





Cheap and fun night out.










My family loves this place. Some weekends are just me and wife, some we take our daughter. Pricing is great, lots of snacks to choose from. We try to make it up at least once a month seeing as we're 100km away. Everyone needs to experience the drive-in.

























A fun place to go on a weekend evening! Prices and atmosphere are great!





What a unique experience in 2021! Very nice set up. The website recommends showing up an hour early, you can get away with 30 mins. If you have a roof rack or taller vehicle you have to park farther away. I recommend bringing a separate Bluetooth or wireless radio.





Late arrivals keep their lights shining well after they could have turned them off. Instructions could have been given at the ticket booth on parking procedures for covid regulations. But a good time none the less





Only place left to watch movies under the stars. The canteen service has a wide variety of snacks n deep fried goodies at reasonable prices.





Always a great place to go. Been going there since 1993.





It's nice to be able to support the Coldbrook Lions Club and enjoy a tradition from younger days.




















Fantastic! Love being under the stars. Great staff!





Awesome evening under the stars















Love this drive in. We keep coming back every summer. Look forward to the Halloween weekend each year. Hope they have it again since they didnt last year. Food is a decent price for the portion size. Great play ground. Appreciate that SUVs and trucks have to park in back rows as other drive ins dont have this rule.





Love this drive in! Great protocols in place for COVID.










Loved it... great way to spend a date night.















amazing as always










When do theses drive in movies start ???





Love it! So much better than a movie theater





Fun place to watch cheap movies, The food is not the best however and you can get a poor view of the screen if you arrive late.





100% great service at the canteen and always fun time at the movies. Great prices to get in too.





Great affordable family entertainment. The new playground by the big screen is great, the staff always friendly and they do their best to have the 1st movie be family friendly. Can't go wrong with a visit to the Valley Drive In, excellent job Lions Club.
