The Drive-In opened on April 2nd, 1957 and closed on June 12th, 2005. The drive-in was historically important becaue it was the last one to close in regional Victoria. At the height of its popularity cars would queue up for 400m along the highway to get in. On the final night of operation the owners showed a free screening of the movie 'Robots'.
Current condition: Very little remains (signs, speaker posts, car ramps, screen structure, etc.)
