General Information:

The Danny Boy DI was opened down the street from the old Ionia Drive-In lot after the owners had some issues securing that original location. The local government forbade them from erecting a permanent screen hence the inflatable screen visible in the photos. Supposedly the nearby airport flight path was a concern on that but it's hard to see why.

The show did pretty well for the 5 years it was in operation, doing similar grosses to some of the other rural drive-ins around the state. Unfortunately, water problems became an issue on the lot and the owners were unable to open for the 2018 season due to that.

Been to Danny Boy's a few times. It was a good theater, and different from the usual drive-in. They even had their own signature ice cream dish that was usually served during Intermission. I was there its last year of operation, and can confirm the water issues they had. They had portajohns placed by the concessions stand. I had reached out to the owners about the issues not too long ago and they said the water wells are always drained for the farms growing corn to be used to make ethanol every summer.
