4. Admiral Twin Drive-In
Tulsa’s very own iconic drive-in theater. If you and your date are movie lovers, then this is an absolute must! The Admiral Twin Drive-In has been around since 1951 when it opened as a single screen. It epitomizes the nostalgic drive-in theatres of the past, and was even featured in Francis Ford Coppola’s classic The Outsiders as the 1950s hangout! Located just off the historic route 66, there’s no better place in Tulsa to enjoy a romantic movie night. Closed during the winter months, it usually opens around the beginning of March in time for Spring.

While on the subject of nostalgia…here’s another opportunity to take a trip down memory lane!
