Wisconsin Drive-in Theaters
During its peak, Wisconsin hosted nearly 60 drive-in theaters. Since then, most of them have closed and been demolished. Currently, there are only 9 drive-ins remaining in Wisconsin with the majority of them being located in either Southern Wisconsin near the Illinois border, or near and around Green Bay, Wisconsin. But the good news is that of these nine, three have been opened since 2000 illustrating the ongoing demand in Wisconsin for drive-ins.
