Indywood Cinema is an independent theater and community offering a unique bike-in theater experience to New Orleans, Louisiana. The local indie theater has launched its first bike-in movie series, showing a selection of carefully curated independent films.
The screenings began in July 2015 and will run for the duration of the summer. The series also includes several dates where dogs are welcome, while the pricing is $7 for a ticket with a chair rental while those who bring their own chair will only have to pay $5.
In addition to promoting the healthy mode of transportation, Indywood's bike-in theater experience can be seen as a compromise for consumers looking to catch a flick while still spending time in the outdoors.
