Huge screen, and at some angles, a movie can be see by folk driving past on the main road nearby. Its been there at least from the 1950's. Look carefully just North of it, huge electricity pylons going East to West across the road, a twin set, carrying hydro-electric power that was generated at the Kariba Dam.

  • This is the old Rainbow Nitestar Drive-in, which was opened in the mid-1970s. The nearby road is the Salisbury-Harare Road from Bulawayo. Not to be confused with the older Skyview Drive-in on the Johannesburg Road which dates from the 1950s. The screen for the latter has apparently collapsed.
