Drive-Ins Near Charlotte
Charlotte has two drive-in theaters within an hour's drive, one right on the western edge of the metro and another about 45 miles to the east.
View Drive-InsThe Belmont Drive-In sits on McAdenville Road in Belmont, roughly 15 miles west of downtown. Originally opened in 1949, it went through a digital upgrade and re-opened in 2023 as a single-screen operation. Admission runs $25 per carload, making it a good deal for families. The season runs April through November.
Farther out, the Badin Road Drive-In in Albemarle has been running since 1948. Its two screens show double features during the season, and the 45-minute drive east takes you through Stanly County's quieter countryside. Both theaters use digital projection and broadcast sound over FM radio.
