Shediac, NB – In a delightful expansion of its whimsical universe, Shediac Wonderland, the beloved home to Bistro Le Moque-Tortue, Le Griffon B&B, and Adorable Chocolat, is thrilled to announce its latest adventure—the Neptune Drive-In Theatre. As the newest addition to its collection of wonder-inspired establishments, the Neptune will keep its storied name while embracing the imaginative whimsy that Shediac Wonderland is known for.
A local landmark since the 1960s, the Neptune Drive-In Theatre boasts a capacity of 350 cars and is equipped with Atlantic Canada's premier digital Ultra 4K projector, guaranteeing a spellbinding cinema escapade under the stars—rain or shine. The drive-in had shut down its operations suddenly, in mid-summer 2022.
Shediac Wonderland's co-owners and spouses, Sébastien Després and Heather Wright, are bubbling with excitement about this enchanting new chapter. “We're thrilled at the opportunity to breathe new life into the Neptune,” says Heather. “We know what the drive-in means to the community, and our teams and our family are wholeheartedly committed to honoring its legacy and ensuring it continues to be a great gathering spot for people of all ages.”
At the forefront of the new expansion is the theatre canteen's metamorphosis into the Morse et Marteaux BBQ Smokehouse. With a name inspired by the whimsical characters of the Walrus and the Carpenter from Lewis Carroll's timeless tales, the reborn canteen features an impressive commercial kitchen equipped with an authentic wood-fired Texas-style smoker.
Sébastien explains that Shediac Wonderland’s culinary team is hoping to redefine the drive-in dining experience. “Our focus on slow-cooked, flavour-rich meats and scratch-made treats of all kinds aligns perfectly with the standards we’ve set for Le Moque-Tortue and Adorable Chocolat,” he explains. "Obviously we’ll have great popcorn and all of the expected concession treats – but we're also eager to bring a whole new level of culinary creativity to complement the immersive cinema-under-the-stars experience.”
Eager to welcome new dreamers and doers to their team, Shediac Wonderland will begin the recruiting process for its new project in the coming days. “We have a great core team at Le Moque-Tortue and Adorable Chocolat, but we're going to need many more hands to bring this project to life,” Sébastien shares with a smile. “We're all about creativity and expertise, and now we're looking for people to jump in and help us make magic happen: Box office attendants, parking attendants, cooks, pit masters, cashiers, and managers. We can't wait to expand the family!”
The Neptune Drive-In is set for a soft opening on May 10th, with anticipation building towards a Grand Opening celebration on May 17th. With a diverse film lineup catering to all tastes and a fun loyalty program complemented by accessible pricing, the Neptune Drive-In is set to reclaim its throne as a must-visit destination for enchanting cinematic adventures.
Audiences and enthusiasts are encouraged to stay curious through Shediac Wonderland's online channels. Following the new channels NeptuneShediac and MorseMarteaux on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok will provide access to the latest updates, exclusive sneak peeks, contests, and captivating content!
