The address above is incorrect. A more accurate address for this theater is 1401 US-18, Algona, IA 50511. This points to the drive in itself. It was at the corner of U.S. 18 and 140th Avenue. This is further south of the listed address.

Please update.

The address for the drive-in is 2203 140th Ave, Algona, IA 50511.

Today, it is private property with no trace of the drive-in remaining. http://tinyurl.com/o3t77bw

The Starlite Drive-In Theatre launched June 9, 1949 with “Drums Along the Mohawk” and was operated by Wilmer Brown, Earl Spike, and Paul McCarty. Just prior to its one year anniversary a storm toppled the screen tower but the theater got back in business quickly. Following the 1973 season, the Starlite name was dropped and the theater became the Algona Drive-In Theatre the remainder of its operation. It celebrated its 30th anniversary but was a casualty in the home video era.
