About PFS Drive-In at the Navy Yard
Welcome to PFS Drive-In at the Navy Yard, a pop-up cinema experience presented by the Philadelphia Film Society. Featuring two large screens mounted to shipping-container structures, this drive-in venue brings classic and contemporary films to the waterfront along Admiral Peary Way and League Island Blvd. With car-based seating, on-site parking for up to 200 vehicles, and convenient transit options, it's a one-of-a-kind way to enjoy film screenings in Philadelphia.
Whether you’re here for a night under the stars or a community screening, we’ve got you covered with practical details on parking, transit, nearby hotels and dining, and how to secure your seats for upcoming showings.
Plan ahead to make the most of your visit: check the schedule for each screening, note if a date is marked as RESCHEDULED from a previous date, and consider nearby lodging like Courtyard Philadelphia South at The Navy Yard for a comfortable stay. For a full experience, explore nearby restaurants and grab a bite before or after the film. Secure your seats with ease—we’ve got you.
Important note: seating is car-based in a drive-in layout, and there is no traditional fixed seating chart published. Each screening is treated as a standalone event with its own date and time.
