Malaysia’s First Ever Drive-In Cinema Will Be Opening Soon!

If you’ve had the liberty of watching American movies filmed circa 50s or have seen modern movies featuring a collection of cars huddled in front of a big-screen, then you have witnessed the nostalgic look and feel of a drive-in cinema.

What exactly is a drive-in cinema? Well, as the name suggests, a drive-in cinema involves an outdoor venue with a large screen that friends, families and couples drive to, park and watch a movie from the comfort of their car, with audiences tuning their car radios to a specific frequency to listen to the film.

With drive-in cinemas being killed off with the emergence of video rentals in the 70s and 80s, it has in recent times made a revival not only in the States but also at other locations around the world, especially in Asia.

With the Thais announcing the emergence of a pop-up, drive-in cinema, Malaysians too will be able to enjoy the same privilege of a movie night while maintaining social distancing, through the opening of M-Junction 2020, Malaysia’s first drive-in cinema.

Creating much buzz via Instagram, @mjunction2020 made the announcement three days ago, to the excitement of netizens.
