Opened on 23rd January 1959 with “The Bridge on the River Kwai”. Address is actually 31 Old Blanchetown Rd, Waikerie. The entrance and exit gates appear to remain, the property looks like its now a house.
Correct address is 8 Sobey Rd, Kadina. The site still retains the shape of a drive-in, ramp markings still visable. Looks like the concession building was converted into a house.
The address for this is now Bogart Drive, Katherine. A house sub-division was built on the old site. The drive-in appears to have closed in the mid 80s.
There was a drive-in located at the address of N Garland Rd & Scott Rd, McKenzie. This appears in 1956 and 1957 aerial photos but is gone ten years later in 1967. There is nothing left of the drive-in today. Now we need to figure out WHICH of the two McKenzie drive-in’s this one was.
