Sundown Drive-In Theatre

Saskatoon's only remaining drive-in theatre has two screens and a concession building. Audio is broadcast over an FM transmitter.

Opened in 1965, it was announced in August 2007 that the property was for sale. It is unlikely that new owners will keep the theatre open, meaning Saskatoon's last drive-in theatre will be closed.

At least one more season left at the Sundown Drive-In.

The sun hasn't set on Saskatoon's last drive-in just yet.

Sundown Drive-In owners Duffy and Rose Besenski had hoped to retire after 43 years of running the theatre, which sits just outside the city's east end at highways 5 and 41.

Rose said it wasn't to be this year -- an offer to buy the land "went kaput" when some potential buyers discovered they couldn't use the land for what they wanted.
