The 13th Annual Brainwash Drive-In/Bike-In/Walk-In Movie Festival will kick off on Friday & Saturday, July 6th & 7th, 2007. Shows at 9:00 p.m.

You just need to get to the Alliance for West Oakland Development Parking Lot, 1357 5th St. at Mandela Parkway, Oakland, CA. See a map.

How: Sit in your car, or bring a chair to sit outside, and watch movies "magically" projected onto a giant screen. Sound is broadcast into your car or boom box using the wonder of frequency modulation ("FM") — in stereo!
Featuring the Rhythmic Revolution and Great First Rate- First Run Movies from all over the world!
