  • Summary

  • There were once 330 drive-in theatres across Australia. Most were sold off for housing developments or shopping centres. But one lone drive-in still exists in Western Sydney - Skyline Drive-in at Blacktown.

    In today's episode of This Arvo in Sydney, we're joined by David Kilderry, drive-in theatre and cinema historian, who says they face big challenges and need to keep up to date with cutting edge technology while also maintaining a nostalgic environment.
