No vendor reservations are required you can simply show up, pay at the gate, and hope to drive home with padded pockets. For vendors who want to clean out their garages, make some money, and catch first-run movie at a bargain price, all in the same day, the Swap Shop Drive-In is the place to be. The swap shop is open 365 days a year, rain or shine, and movies play nightly at 8:30 PM. The Swap Shop Drive-In in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, does double duty as a flea market and drive-in theater. An antique neon sign welcomes moviegoers and the nostalgic for a night with the silver screen. If you’re choosy about your view, you can even reserve a prime spot for your car in advance. Opened in 1949, the screen was destroyed by a tornado in the mid-1950s and then rebuilt. Open on weekends from April to October, the Skyview Drive-In in southern Illinois dates all the way back to the golden age of drive-in movie theaters (and has a website straight out of the ‘90s to prove its commitment to vintage). Best of all, it’s easy for locals to make the Fiesta Drive-In part of their regular routine, just like the good old days: Membership to the Fiesta Drive-In Club costs just $10 per month and grants you 50 percent off all your ticket purchases.

There’s a concession stand on site with “award-winning” popcorn, pizza, fries, chili, hot dogs, burgers, candy, and drinks. Fiesta Drive-In Theatre, Carlsbad, NMĪ family-owned and -operated business for nearly three decades, Carlsbad’s Fiesta Drive-In Theatre is one of the only drive-ins open year-round. The Stars & Stripes Drive-In has three screens and is open year-round. Plus, kids will want to go early to enjoy the theater’s playground and swing set. Moviegoers can enjoy Coke ICEEs, burgers, funnel cakes, and fries as if they were hopping over to the local soda shop for “rockin eats and tasty treats,” as the theater puts it.

One of the coolest aspects of the Stars & Stripes Drive-In Theatre in Lubbock, Texas, is the ‘50s-style cafe on site. Photo: Stars & Stripes Drive-In Theatre/Facebook
