West Wind Drive-In Las Vegas
It always amazes me how many people I met who live in Las Vegas who do not know we have a drive-in theater!
Yeparoo…
The West Wind Drive-In Las Vegas is centrally located {a smidge north of central} off of Rancho and Smoke Ranch. {The road is actually Carey but more know Smoke Ranch, which turns into Carey at Rancho.}
Not too many drive-in theaters left in the United States and we are lucky enough to have one in our backyard.
I love going to the drive-in when the weather is cooler in the spring or fall. Summer nights are killer but if you really want to go… knock yourself out!

Westwind Drive-In Snacks
While the West Wind Drive-In Las Vegas offers food and snacks to buy you might want to forgo that and take your own.
Yep, at the drive in you can take in whatever you want {not like going to an indoor theater}.
We like to pack a cooler with water and other drinks to take with us. Not only is it what we want… we save a lot by doing it this way. Consider leaving the glass containers at home because flat tires in the dark are not cool.
Westwind Drive-In Tips
Before you go, take these tips into consideration to see if they apply to you.
BE COMFORTABLE
If you don’t want to sit in your car during the movie(s), then pack your favorite chair. As you see above we took a bean bag, folding chairs, and an Adirondack Chair. We have seen sofas and recliners in the back of trucks and even some folks who pack a mattress up and toss in the back to really be comfortable. {At least I hope that is why.}
TAKE CASH
The ticket booths do not accept credit or debit cards to purchase your tickets.
Also, there is a snack bar, which also has video games so if you want to kill some time before the movie starts, take some spare change with you for the kids.
PORTABLE RADIO
If you haven’t been yet, here’s a tip that we enjoy. We don’t like to leave the car running or switched on so we can hear the movie through our radio (don’t want a dead battery). Since we sit outside in our chairs we take a portable radio and place it between all of us.
