CERES, CA — After a year in limbo, it finally looks like the Ceres Drive-In won’t be opening again.

The era of the drive-in theater is over, and it’s not coming back. At least not to Ceres.

Owners of the Ceres Theatre & Flea Market — the region’s last drive-in — have confirmed that the show will not go on.

They’ve put the property up for sale, asking $2.5 million for the 14-acre “industrial” site.

Read the full story at the Merced Sun-Star.
