It’s a Movie AND a Fireworks show!

If you’ve been watching to share the drive-in movie theatre experience with your kids, you may want to head down to Concord, which is the home of the Charlotte Motor Speedway. On Wednesday, July 1st, you can watch “The Goonies” on the track’s 16,000 square foot HDTV and enjoy fireworks afterwards. $40 per car. On July 8th, they’re showing “The Secret Life of Pets” and that’ll be $30 per car without a fireworks show. All of proceeds of the two nights are going to the Speedway Children’s Charities.
