The 400 Drive-In was located at Highway 400 and Highway 7.

Originally opened in 1954 with a single screen. Later it was expanded to 3 screens (1978), and was a familiar site for people driving up to Cottage Country and Barrie, particularly at night.

It was closed and demolished in 1997 to make way for the Famous Players Colossus movie theater.

The three screens had room for 1350 cars in total.
Current condition: Something standing in it's place (no remains)

Address:
3555 Highway 7
Woodbridge, Ontario Canada
