El Rancho Drive-in

&

Ozoner 29 Drive-in

The Wemple family would like to welcome you to their Drive-in Theatres. We take much pride in providing a great experience for all who pay us a visit at either location. 

El Rancho Drive-in is a classic establishment built in 1951, located in the open fields and farm lands off the Mohawk River in Palatine Bridge, New York. It is a single screen drive-in that shows double features. 

The Ozoner 29 Drive-in was built by the Wemples in 2002 and has brought wonderful family fun and entertainment to Broadalbin. Many tourists visiting the Great Sacangaga Lake make it a summer tradition to visit this twin screen drive-in theatre.

Drive-in Theatres; where the past, present, and future meet...

Since the first drive-in opened in New Jersey in the year 1933, drive-in theatres have been a summer tradition for countless families all across America. Over the years, many drive-ins could not afford the cost of changing technologies and trends to survive the test of time. Fulton and Montgomery County hold only two of these American gems; El Rancho and Ozoner 29 Drive-in Theatres. Come join us for a unique movie experience that no indoor theatre can compare to.
