PAM AT COBURG DRIVE-IN
The back of a drive-in screen is a house-sized rectangle facing an empty lot — about the most inviting wall in Melbourne. The Sydney Road run from Brunswick to Coburg holds some of the biggest Pams anywhere, and this is the anchor.
THE PLACE
One of the last drive-ins in Australia, open since 1965: three screens, a gravel field and a speaker pole for every car, ten minutes up Sydney Road.
The back of a drive-in screen is a rectangle the size of a house facing an empty lot — about the most inviting wall in Melbourne. The northern suburbs run of Sydney Road, Coburg and Brunswick is where a lot of Pam's biggest work lives.
