History
The Dixie Twin Drive-In Theater is a classic example of Americana that offers current day value with a touch of nostalgia. Located in Dayton, Ohio, “The Dixie” has 2 huge Screens, each with its own State-of-the-Art Digital Projector. We feature “First-Run” movies and play 2 movies per screen, per night, for an unmatched outdoor movie theater experience.
⏰ Starting in April, the outdoor movie season begins Friday & Saturday nights and expands to 6 nights per week (Closed Mondays) from Memorial Weekend through Mid-August. Toward summer’s end, we go back to a Friday & Saturday schedule until the season ends around end of October.
📽 🍿 Movies start at dark and there’s a full Concession Stand of food, drinks, treats, snacks, meals and even custom Dixie Merch! A short intermission in-between the first and second movie, allows for bathroom breaks and last chance purchases of concession drinks/snacks/meals. Bathrooms are located on the north side of our Concession Stand.
🔎 The grounds of the Dixie Twin are also home to a Sunday morning outdoor shopping experience! Visit “The Paris Flea Market” Sundays, 6:00am to 12:00 noon (seriously, people are shopping at 6 am with flashlights), starting April through October.
