In 1975 the Airport Drive-In had a capacity for 520 cars and the operator is listed as Richard Investments Ltd. In 1980 the Airport Drive-In is still listed and D. Zaba was the operator. Sometimes IMPA will continue to list a drive-in after it has closed so they aren’t reliable to use for a timeline.

And they are not 100% accurate.

IMPA is the International Motion Picture Almanac. It lists drive-ins by year under location, owner and car capacity. You might be able to find one on eBay or alibris.com.

ken mc, I am doing research for a book I’m writing on Manitoba drive-ins. What is the IMPA? Where could I find one in my city? Could it tell me about all drive-ins that existed in Manitoba?

Thanks,
Tim

This was listed as the Airline Drive-In in the 1963 IMPA. Operator at the time was Leon Asper. Capacity was 520 cars.
