Looking for Iconic Theaters for the 50th Anniversary Screening of STAR WARS

I wish you well with this, mate. 👍

Here is a list of the 32 US cinemas that showed Star Wars on the opening day (and also some that showed it later that week)…

https://web.archive.org/web/20180719175443/https://www.in70mm.com/library/engagements/film/s/star_wars/theatres/index.htm (43 cinemas listed that showed Star Wars on that opening weekend)
 

I’m guessing many no longer exist or are still open cinemas - hopefully some of our US members may be able to help you out with a list of the cinemas still open… and likely to be showing Star Wars come Friday 19th February, 2027 - or for the ‘limited time’ afterwards.
 

I can’t imagine they won’t. It’d be #1 w/ a bullet for this purpose, I’d believe. The only other theater I can think of that’d be even close would be the Westside in Portland, (it was the longest first-run engagement the movie had, over a year I believe) but that theater doesn’t even exist anymore.

all credit to Roobyoo for this (I’ve posted it in one of the other threads - but thought it may also apply here)…
 

In Germany it appears that Star Wars will be shown in cinemas from Thursday 18th February, 2027…

If you live outside the US, it may be worth checking any decent and reliable ‘cinema release’ sites for your country - to see when Star Wars will actually be shown in your area of the world… 👍
 

Hopefully we’ll also see more details on what languages the respective opening crawls will be in - as well as possible audio dubs and subtitle options…

WOW thank you so much!!

guess we have to wait a few months til we get infos which theater will show the version…

but that helps me a lot and i already have some places in mind:)

These also may be of some use - or merely of interest, mate…

2️⃣ Ⓑ Watching the Original Trilogy for the first time - and introducing the next generation to the theatrical cuts… of 'An Index Thread for Original Trilogy Discussions;.

^ There are a number of threads in the section discussing various theatres where fans watch the Original Trilogy films for the first time - and these may be of specific interest (amongst the others):-

• Is the theater where you saw Star Wars still standing? (2012 thread)

• Trying to find where I saw Star Wars (2017 thread)
 

I’ll be watching Star Wars in 2027 at my local cinema - here - where I’ve seen all of the Star Wars films (even those two Ewok films in the mid-80s!) since moving nearby in '80. They still keep the food and drink reasonably priced too - the benefit of being an independent cinema, I guess. 👍
