One of the few remaining drive-in cinemas in the country, Village Cinemas' Coburg Drive-In theatre recalls an age long gone — though we'd argue the social distancing era has lent it a newfound sense of relevance.
It's hard not to see the charm in the whole experience, from the comfort of watching latest-release or classic movies on one of the precinct's three screens from the comfort of your own car, to the retro-style American diner which you can order from an app and enjoy delivery straight to your window. Gone are the days of speakers through the window, too, with the sound coming straight through your car radio, meaning you can adjust the volume as you wish.
