Tickets
All Bull City Reels on Wheels events are free, but tickets must be reserved online. Only one ticket is needed per car.
Reserving your ticket online guarantees you entry to the show. We only authorize as many tickets as we have spots available for each show. Ticket registration will be taken online until all spots are full or until 3 p.m. on the day of the event. No tickets will be issued at the gate.
No shows are no fun! If you reserve a ticket and can no longer attend, please let us know as soon as possible!
Food
Food will be available for purchase. A variety of food trucks will be on-site with food and dessert options. The gates will open 1 hour before the show starts - come early and enjoy some great food before the show!
Masks will be required when picking up food, and lines will be marked to follow social distancing guidelines.
Food trucks will remain open until approximately 15 minutes before the end of the movie.
You are welcome to bring your own food to the movie. Please do not share food between vehicles. We ask you to consider supporting your local Durham economy by purchasing your concession items on-site.
