Opened on 23rd December 1971. The closing date of Tweed Heads Drive-In was by 1987 when the new Tweed by-pass highway opened which cut through the drive-in. The site was brought by Gold Coast Airport for 11.45 million($Australian) in July 2016. The land is now used for airport parking.

Most of the ramps are still there and the screen frame too.. Woolemi Place might be part the entrance road of the drive-in. The site is now used for secure airport parking(overnight or longer?) for the Gold Coast Airport(Ezy Parking) and a bus service to and from the Gold Coast Airport too. The building used by Ezy Parking on the drive-in site might the drive-in’s snack bar and bio box building?

The screen is gone and the diner is in a major state of decay. The exit still exists and the entry can be made out (slightly) on google earth.

The screen frame was taken down sometime between May 2017 and June 2019.
