The Mahoning Drive-In Theater presents a 35mm marathon of the complete Marty McFly adventure on the big screen, with a DeLorean on site to set the scene. The lineup begins with the 1985 original from Robert Zemeckis, where Marty, played by Michael J. Fox, is accidentally sent from 1985 to 1955 and must bring his parents together to secure his own future, featuring Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, and Crispin Glover, plus the Huey Lewis and the News hits The Power of Love and Back in Time. After a brief intermission, Part II sends Marty and Doc thirty years ahead to safeguard Marty’s family, only to face Biff’s scheming that forces them to hop across timelines to fix the fallout. The trilogy concludes in the Old West with Part III, as Marty races to help Doc, with appearances by Mary Steenburgen, Elizabeth Shue, Tom Wilson, Dub Taylor, and ZZ Top. Early festivities include a live DJ set, a themed raffle, and special concession items in celebration of the beloved series. This event is rain or shine, with no refunds or transfers.
