Spud Drive-In Theater, Drive-in theater in Victor-Driggs area, Idaho.

Spud Drive-In Theater is an outdoor cinema in the Victor-Driggs area that sits on a large property. The facility features a full-sized screen and standard drive-in amenities that allow visitors to watch movies from their vehicles in the traditional manner.

Ace Wood built the Spud Drive-In in 1953 in a potato-farming region between Victor and Driggs. Financial trouble in 2011 nearly closed it, but arrangements kept it running. A windstorm destroyed the original screen structure on the evening of April 4, 2022; manager Katie Mumm said it would be rebuilt in the original colors. MD Nursery, owner of the surrounding land, purchased the theater in August 2023 and plans to keep it operating.

The entrance sign is a giant potato mounted on the back of a 1946 Chevrolet flat-bed truck, a nod to the potato-farming region the theater serves. The drive-in has also hosted concerts, including a 2010 performance by Widespread Panic. From 2004 to 2008 it was the home base of the SpudFest Family Film and Music Festival, founded by Dawn Wells, the original Mary Ann on Gilligan's Island.

The venue offers typical drive-in amenities and remains operational despite earlier weather damage. Visitors should prepare for variable weather conditions and allow extra time for parking and settling into their vehicles.

The giant potato at the entrance sits on the back of a 1946 Chevrolet flat-bed truck, a detail easy to miss at speed. The sign marks a theater built by Ace Wood in 1953 in a potato-farming region between Victor and Driggs.
