The Beckley Open Air Theatre was renamed the Raleigh Drive-In on April 12, 1968, and was still open as late as 1977. The drive-in was gone in the 1980s.

A closer address is 448 Stanaford Rd, Beckley, WV.

It’s not quite perfect, just a few feet south of the entrance. But this address is really close. The entrance is now Dixieland Road and there is no trace of the drive-in remaining.

The site is not a Walmart, it’s a trailer park. The original drive-in entrance was at 198 Dixieland Rd, Beckley, WV 25801.
