Join the National Automobile Museum for a Night at the Drive-In! Live band, retro fun, and a sunset screening of Grease!

The National Automobile Museum is inviting the community to step back into the golden age of rock 'n' roll with the debut of "Rock & Roll Night at the Drive-In," a one-of-a-kind experience taking place Friday, August 28, 2026.

For the first time, Reno will host a drive-in event that combines the excitement of live entertainment, classic automobiles, audience participation, and an outdoor movie under the stars. Guests will enjoy an evening filled with music, dancing, contests, and nostalgia before settling in to watch the beloved musical classic Grease on the big screen." This is much more than a movie night," said Phil MacDougall, President of the National Automobile Museum. "We're creating an immersive experience that celebrates the music, fashion, automobiles, and culture of the 1950s. We wanted to bring something truly unique to Reno—an evening where families, friends, and car enthusiasts can make memories together."
