The POWERplex, Schnucks, U.S. Bank, Fogarty Services and Klance Unlimited present Drive-In St. Louis -- Music, Movies and Graduations.

This safe, COVID-19 compliant drive-in campus will meet all social distancing and health department recommendations as the massive parking lot of the former St. Louis Outlet Mall in Hazelwood is transformed into a live concert and drive-in movie venue on nights when planned drive-in high school graduations are not being held there.
