The Sevon Drive-In was located on Old US 17 in between the towns of Sebring and Avon Park; its name was a portmanteau of the two towns. While the shape of the drive-in is visible in aerial photographs, nearly nothing remains at eye-level. The property is now used to store tractor trailers.

This area is surrounded by orange groves. It must have been a real treat to watch a movie while the orange blossoms were in bloom.

My 1956 Motion picture Almanac has it located in Sebring.Flordia.Andy, it parked 264 cars and was owned by Carl Floyd which i bet was part of Floyd Theatres located all over Flordia.

That should be Old US 27. My mistake. I guess it could’ve been in Sebring. I’m not sure where the city limits begin and end.
