About Shankweiler's Drive-in
Shankweiler's Drive-in is America's oldest operating drive-in. It opened in 1934 and at the time was only the second drive-in to open in America. Shankweiler's is a single screen drive-in located in Orefield, PA which is a small town located about 15 minutes outside of Allentown, PA near the New Jersey border. Shankweiler's has changed owners a number of times, but it has never been closed a season. If planning to visit, plan to arrive early (the box office opens 2 1/2 hours before Showtime) as this drive-in parks less than 300 cars and often fills up early, especially on the weekends. They operate seasonally April thru September. Shankweiler's Drive-in is currently for sale for $1.1 million.
