Highway 2 Drive-in

Welcome to the Highway 2 Community Drive-In Theater, the only drive-in theater in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Founded in 1953 by J. L. LeDuc, the drive-in has a rich history and has become a cherished community space. After closing in 2001, it remained dormant until the U.P. Film Union revived it in 2016, hosting free movie events that draw attendees from across the region. The drive-in operates primarily during the summer and fall seasons, with events that often include community gatherings and concerts. The theater features one screen and is known for its unique model where all movie events are free, supported by generous donations from local sponsors. The concession stand is run by various non-profit organizations, allowing them to fundraise during events. Although outside food is not allowed, the drive-in provides a welcoming atmosphere for families and friends to enjoy movies together. The Highway 2 Drive-In also hosts special events, including concerts and community celebrations, making it a vibrant part of the local culture. With a commitment to accessibility and community engagement, the U.P. Film Union continues to enhance the drive-in experience for all attendees.
