The drive-in was built in the mid-20th century and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, highlighting its importance to American cinema history. It represents an era when car-based theaters were a major form of entertainment.
The drive-in keeps alive the tradition of watching movies together as a community, where families and groups gather for a shared outdoor entertainment experience. Visitors often find this social aspect as important as the films themselves.
Arrive early to choose a good spot and tune your device to the FM frequency before the film starts. It helps to bring a fully charged battery or portable power if using a handheld device for audio.
