If you’ve never watched a movie while crammed in the back of an SUV, huddled under blankets, your time has come.

Now that Gov. Phil Murphy gave us permission to visit drive-thru and drive-in entertainment, companies that create the drive-in movie experience are increasing access to this pastime.

While the state does have one permanent drive-in movie theater -- the Delsea Drive-in in Vineland -- there are also pop-up ones sprouting up in parks, farms and parking lots throughout the state. Some are for one night only and others are reoccurring.

Here’s where you can find them:

• Berkeley Township, Veterans Park. The first of three events will be Saturday, June 6. It is open to Berkeley Township residents ONLY and you must register in advance because space is limited.
• Brick Township, Windward Beach Park. Fridays June 5 through July 3.
• Jackson Township, Back to the Movies Drive-In announced last month it had booked Jackson and is in discussions with other towns. A date is still being worked out. Check their Facebook page for updates. Or sign up for Back to the Movies mailing list.
• Hillsdale, Demarest Farms, Starts June 8. This agri-tourism farm will start offering drive-in movies on June 8 with reoccurring dates expected to last at least through August and possibly through October. A full concession stand and bathrooms will be available. Tickets are $25 per car load and can be purchased on Demarest Farms’ website.
• Northvale, Rockleigh Country Club. June 26 and 27. Two shows each night. The movies will be supplied by 6ft Cinemas, which promises food trucks, concessions and a bar for those age 21 and over. Visit 6ft Cinemas website to sign-up for alerts when they book other dates and venues.
• Sayreville, Sayerville Sports Comples, May 30. The “Mayor’s Moonlight Movie Night” is open to residents ONLY. And attendees must register their vehicle (not the number of occupants) before the event. Only 100 cars will be admitted.
• Vineland, Delsea Drive-in Theatre. Opens May 22. The state’s only permanent drive-in theater is open Thursday through Sunday. Tickets must be purchased on their website. The concession stand is open but orders must be placed through your smartphone. Tickets are $11 per person, plus tax and fees.
