ICYMI: On the morning of Sun., Jan. 23, the roundhouse building at West Wind 6 — Sac’s drive-in movie theater complex — went up in flames, leaving the theater closed for five days. The kitchen, concessions area + collection of arcade games were a total loss, the Sacramento Metro Fire spokesman shared after the fire. Restrooms, the projection room and its equipment + the six projection screens remained untouched.
With the loss of all concessions, a main source of income for the theater, the community rallied together. Since the fire, local food trucks are filling in for the absent popcorn, pulling up to the theater on a rotating weekly schedule until concessions reopen.
Want to head out for dinner + a movie tonight to help support Sacramento’s drive-in movie theater? Here’s a few food truck + film pairings we think would be a perfect match.
