Closed because the local council(Charters Towers Regional Council) who run the World Theatre building put up the council rates and spend funding on their World Theatre and not the Tors Drive-in as well. Tors Drive-in had already closed down their indoor cinema building(recently?).

Sadly it looks like this one might be closed for good now.

There is also an indoor cinema (Tors Cinema ) on the drive-in(1 screen) possibly in the same year as the drive-in(1966?)

Hey Mike,

Thanks for posting this on the web. We have had our 2 screens going since 2011 and just thought we’d let you know. Will be taking some more pics soon. My husband Steve and I have been running the place since 1990! Cheers, and thanks again, Deb.
