UScellular Brings Free Drive-In Movie Experience to Morgantown This Weekend

UScellular is hosting a FREE Drive-In Movie in Morgantown on Aug. 27 and 28 at the WVU - Monongalia County Ballpark parking lot. “Movie Under the Stars” will feature “Shrek 2,” beginning at 8:00 p.m. and is free of charge each night. Gates open at 6:30 p.m. Details are available at drivein.uscellular.com, and anyone 18 years or older can register for a parking pass now. Only one person in each vehicle needs to register for a pass, and they are available on a first-come, first-served basis. In addition to free entry, UScellular will provide each vehicle popular movie snacks, including a snack bucket filled with popcorn, sweets and family goodies.

“The popularity of drive-in movies grew during the pandemic, evoking a sense of nostalgia while bringing friends and family together,” said Nakeita Stewart, director of sales and operations for UScellular in the Mid-Atlantic. “As long-time members of the Morgantown community, we wanted to bring that experience here, and we are excited to provide a free night of entertainment the whole family can enjoy.”

UScellular is bringing a custom, 52-foot screen to the WVU - Monongalia County Ballpark parking lot for the movie. For best access to the parking lot, enter from University Town Centre Drive across the street from the stadium (located at 2040 Gyorko Drive) in Granville. Gates open at 6:30 p.m., and parking spots will be strategically mapped to ensure social distance and the best viewing angles. Audio will be enabled through each car’s FM radio, and on-site attendants will guide vehicles to their parking spots. While spots last, UScellular customers with parking passes will be directed to a preferred viewing area and receive other surprise perks.

This is the first time UScellular is bringing its “Movie Under the Stars” program to Morgantown. Last year the company held free movie nights in 10 cities across the country, providing a fun and safe experience for nearly 9,000 attendees.
