Acadiana Drive-In Coming Soon!

By Maaike Erents, Event Coordinator Social Entertainment Productions August 13, 2020

Cajundome and Social Entertainment announced today a joint

collaboration to bring back 50's style drive-in entertainment to Acadiana. The ‘Acadiana Drive-In’

outdoor events will take place at the CAJUNDOME this Fall.


By joining forces and adapting their usual approaches to organizing events, the Cajundome and

Social Entertainment want to bring entertainment back to the community, in a safe and socially

distanced way. At the same time, the event companies hope to bring some revenue back, after

both had to cancel or postpone most of their previously scheduled events due to the pandemic.

“Drive-In entertainment is a logical decision when it comes to integrating present entertainment

options with social distance parameters in mind,” event organizers say. “More than 4,000

drive-ins once operated in North America, at their peak in the late 50’s. Not only will the

‘Acadiana Drive In’ be a safe way to enjoy entertainment, it will also be exciting to bring the

nostalgia of 50’s style events back to Acadiana.”


The Acadiana Drive-In events will operate within the current CDC & social distancing guidelines.

Event goers can enjoy the entertainment from their car or sit outside their vehicle in their

designated tailgate spot. Cars will be directed to park at assigned spaces, creating a safe

distance from other event goers.


The initial ‘Acadiana Drive-In’ entertainment line-up will be released soon. For more information

announcements and events. Sponsorships are currently available, please contact Maaike at

Social Entertainment for more information.
