Silver Lining Drive-In Announces Ticket Price Change

The Bedford County Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce a significant change in the Silver Lining Drive-In Movie Series pricing to the benefit local families. Beginning July 2, all movie-goers ages 18 and under will be admitted FREE. Adult pricing (19 and older) will remain at just $5 per person.

“The Chamber of Commerce and Bedford County Fair recognize the economic challenges of rising gas prices and inflation in general,” said Chamber President-CEO Kellie Goodman Shaffer. “Thanks to the local businesses who support the movie series, we felt it was appropriate to make this price change to allow more families, and especially young people, to enjoy the drive-in this summer.”

The 2022 summer series opened Memorial Day weekend, with a free movie night, and one of the largest crowds since the drive-in movies began during the pandemic in 2020. Nine movies remain on the schedule, including Jurassic Park, A League of the Their Own, Days of Thunder*, Home Alone, The Little Mermaid, Night at the Museum, Talladega Nights*, Cruella and Titanic. (*these movies will be held Sunday evenings in partnership with the Bedford Speedway.)

Movies begin at dusk. Gates open 90 minutes before showtime. Concessions available prior to the movie include pop corn or kettle corn, boxed candy, Meadows Frozen Custard, drive-in t-shirts, and glow sticks. Other concessions may be available on select nights.

About the Silver Lining Drive-In at the Bedford County Fairgrounds

The Silver Lining Drive-In is the product of a remarkable cooperative effort among businesses of the Bedford County region. Twenty-two companies came together amid the challenges of the Coronavirus pandemic to create a lasting asset at the fairgrounds, and the opportunity for the Chamber, in partnership with the fair, to provide safe, socially distant programs and events for families of the Bedford County region, this summer and beyond. Another 40+ companies provided sponsorships and donations in support of the project and the summer movie and event series.

The 2022 movie series is supported by more than 40 business, organizations and community partners, cooperating to provide affordable entertainment for families of the Bedford County region.
