Yankee Stadium will be home to an innovative COVID-19 era entertainment festival this summer called Uptown Drive-In. The emerging event will take place in the parking lot of Yankee Stadium all summer long. Starting in July, the event will feature car side dinner service, live music and drive-in movies. Uptown Drive-In will also feature games, raffles and much more.
“Since we were planning on having the Bronx Night Market, the Bronx Beer Festival and Uptown Epicure Festival running this summer, which was supposed to start in May, we already had a lot of great options available. Everyone is so excited about the possibility of connecting sooner [at this new experience] than initially planned,” organizers told reporters.
Adding on to the entertainment, the innovative event will also offer date night activities on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Closing out the weekend, Uptown Drive-In will offer brunch for families looking to get some fresh air.
Pricing and logistics are still being determined. Organizers expect to launch the festival in July.
