The Harvest Moon Drive-in in Gibson City, IL packed the house on a breezy summer night. The snack bars were humming, even while people walked across the street with take-out pizza in their hands.

Chicago, IL

The Cascade Drive-in Theatre in Chicago features a relatively nondescript marquee. However, this ozoner has proved to pull in many cars on a given evening.

Carlinville, IL

The Diana Drive-in in Carlinville, off one of the old alignments of Route 66, sits forlorn and forgotten. The marquee displays a blank board and the lot is overgrown. The effects of time has taken its toll at this drive-in of yesteryear.

The Green Meadow Drive-inin Springfield, IL is closed, though a go cart track sits in its place. The screen still stands erect, awaiting its next show... a show that may never come. The marquee is now graffitied.

The Sky VIew Drive-in is one of the few of the open drive-in theatres located on Route 66. This theatre is open seasonally is the lot is kept in great condition. There's even picnic tables on the lot, bringing even more convenience to its guests.
