Built in 1954 by Stan Zaba, the Twilite Drive-In still operates in Wolseley after over sixty years. It is the first drive-in theatre built in Saskatchewan, and is only of a handful still operating in Canada.
Now owned by Stan’s son, Don, the Twilite Drive-In does not play as many shows as it did during its heyday in the 1960s and 1970s, it still plays shows weekends May through September. Over the years, the Drive-In has played many blockbusters, ranging from The Sound of Music and Gone with the Wind to The Dark Knight and Transformers. It offers a full concession stand including popcorn, fountain drinks, and various fried foods. The movies have been playing on an old-style projector, where Don could be found changing the reels during shows. On July 2nd and 3rd, 2013 the Twilite Drive-In upgraded to a new digital projector. The first digitally formatted movie to show at the Drive-In was Thursday, July 4 and it was none other than – Iron Man 3. As a thank-you to everyone for their continued support, with raising money to keep the Twilite Drive-In open for more seasons to come, Thursday July 4 was FREE Admission Night.
