Finger Lakes Drive-In
Clark Street Road, Auburn, NY 13021
(315) 252-3969
The lot can hold about 290 cars and we just updated our projection system so that the picture is clear and bright.
The concession stand has a wide choice of goodies from Ice-Cream to Pizza to candy. You can tune in on your car radio on 540 AM or use the speaker posts.
I believe the Drive-In was constructed in 1949 (I'll have to check that), even though the sign on the front of the Box-Office says 1950. This Drive-In was the companion to the Drive-In located in the other side of town... but that was before my time.
The Drive-In on Rts. 5 & 20 came under new ownership two seasons ago and many improvements and modernizations have been made, yet we are still trying to give folks that special "Drive-In" experience. The Drive-In usually opens in late April or early May on the weekends and jumps to a full 7 day schedule from Memorial weekend to Labor Day.
From time to time the origional owner of both Auburn Drive-Ins stops by and let's us in a few trade secrets and enlightens us on some of the great history of the outdoor threatre.
Thanks to the managment of the Finger Lakes DI for the photos and info.
