Trunk or Treat

Join us for
Trunk or Treat Fun!

2024 6th Annual Trunk or Treat Schedule: TBD

Event Overview

Regular Bengies admission applies to all attending this event.

Trunk or Treaters will spend the evening going from trunk to trunk, collecting candy from vehicle owners who have decorated their vehicles. “Trunkers” will be asked to decorate their trunk, tailgate, or hatchback and provide candy for the “treaters.”

You do not have to be a “Trunker” or a “Treater” to attend this night. The theatre is open to all, as usual.

At TBDPM, The Whitemarsh Ballet Academy will perform The Monster Mash & Thriller. You will also be able to learn these dances and join in on the fun!

At Sunset, we will have a camera set up to send a live feed of the “Treaters” Costume Parade across the GIANT Outdoor Screen!

A Halloween craft station will be set up for the kids!

Approximately TBD PM – On With the Show! 

Normally, we do not allow photography at the Bengies. We will make an exception for this event. You can take photos up until we go on screen with the National Anthem. Please tag us in the photos you post. We would love to see them! Please do not take any photos while the movies are on screen.

“Treater” Guidelines:

The Box Office opens at 4:00 PM to all, but Trunk or Treating will not start until 4:45 PM to give the “Trunkers” time to set up.

– Regular Bengies admission applies to all attending this event.

– An adult must accompany children.

– Please keep your costumes “G” Rated (avoid overly scary/gory costumes). Children of all ages are expected to attend this event.

– All Bengies Drive-In Theatre Rules & Policies apply for this event.

-Registration is not required for treaters.

-There will not be a costume contest. However, The Bengies will keep an eye out for any “Treaters” with an exceptional costume deserving a prize!

We have a limited number of Trunk or Treat Tote Bags that we will give away to “Treaters” on a first-come, first-served basis. If you want to ensure you get a tote bag, you can purchase it ahead of time with your online tickets.
