About 66 Drive-In

The 66 Drive-In in Carthage is one of America's most iconic Route 66 landmarks, having opened in 1949 during the golden age of postwar drive-in cinema. Set on Old 66 Boulevard, this beloved Jasper County institution operates two screens and is a must-stop for Route 66 road trippers and southwest Missouri families alike. The vintage neon marquee and authentic retro atmosphere make it one of the most photographed and celebrated drive-ins in the Midwest.
