The Austin-based theater chain, Alamo Drafthouse, provided several details about its plans for the new cinema and drive-in theater on the former 112 Drive-In property, located at at 3552 Hwy 112 in Fayetteville.
The new 38,000-square-foot facility will be part of a new 19.5-acre mixed-use development called The Aronson, which will feature a mix of commercial and residential units anchored by what will be the first Alamo Drafthouse in Arkansas and the company’s first permanent drive-in.
“Our mission at Alamo Drafthouse is to preserve, celebrate, and innovate the cinema experience,” said Shelli Taylor, CEO of Alamo Drafthouse. “Drive-in theaters deeply influenced the Alamo Drafthouse preshow, programming, and design from the very beginning, but we have never managed to incorporate a permanent drive-in into any of our theaters. We are beyond excited to launch the first Alamo drive-in screen in Fayetteville!”
The new theater is set to open in 2024 and will include both Hollywood blockbusters and first-run releases next to independent and art house titles, according to a website update.

Similar to other Drafthouse locations, menus will be available at each seat where patrons will use paper and pen to order food and drinks after pressing a call button to contact a server. Menus will include appetizers, entrees and desserts, plus full bar options including cocktails, spirits, milkshakes and draft beers. A kids menu with a la carte options is also available.
The Fayetteville location will include a standalone cocktail bar and outdoor beer garden with a view of the drive-in screen.
The indoor cinema will include a total of 800 seats across eight 4k digital theaters, all equipped with 7.1 Dolby surround sound. One of the theaters will include Dolby Atmos spatial sound technology.
All seating will be assigned and can be reserved both in person or online.
