July 2026, front Marquee, located at the (left) west side of property at the entrance (look between the two thick trees, and the on-site concession building still stand.
If you go back to Google Street View December 2007, off of South Holly Street, the concession and screen are still there. Today, as stated, all traces are long gone, and the area is a well maintained grass field.
Kenmore is correct, the sign across from the site with the brick base was never related to the drive-in. The very large post office on the site demolished all traces of the drive-in when it went up.
As of July 2026, the screen still stands, although it is rapidly deteriorating. It’s a miracle it’s still there, and a blessing. The Malvern moose lodge has occupied the building on the site for years, that sits right behind the screen from the main road.
A Tri-State Window & Door Mfg Inc building sits at the entrance to the site. The rest of the property behind remains a reasonably well maintained empty grass field with no trace of the drive in left.
Google street view shows the screen standing in June 2012, but gone by summer 2013. In early 2018 a large building was built on the site. As of summer 2026, the business on site is White Cap Construction and Safety Supplies. Business name has changed a few times over the past decade.
Modern housing now sits on the old site, (known as Razorback Circle) which is adjacent to Razorback Stadium. It sits just behind Storage Plus of Texarkana. Google maps does not pin the address correctly, likely due to changes in the street names. Closing date is unknown but must have been long ago, as there’s no real traces left. A more accurate close address would be 2113 E Broad St, Texarkana, AR. Satellite view from that address is accurate.
Uploaded a couple of google maps images of the site as of 2026. The Marquee is still out front, surprisingly after over 40 years being abandoned. The concession building is still on site as well, showing lots of deterioration. An ATM Knoxville Credit Union business listing is incorrectly placed on site right at the concession building. The front entrance is heavily overgrown, but from the satellite image you can still see the faint outlines of the ramps on site.
The entire property and surrounding area is completely consumed by commercial / business stores including a shopping center. No remaining evidence of the drive-in exists anymore.
Some more info on the famous concert held here. Rock Group KISS, along with Savoy Brown, played the Sundowner Drive-In for an unique rare concert, late on the night of June 2, 1974. The show didn’t start until 11PM, but was still in daylight due to the Alaskan summer. A stage was built directly in front of the drive-in’s screen. Reportedly 3,000+ people were in attendance. 4 people were arrested at the show, due to rowdiness and intoxication, typical of that era. A rare photograph has been uploaded of them playing in daylight despite it being so late into the night.
