Hampton Bays Movie Theater Will Close Permanently Thursday
Michael Wright 5 hrs ago
The Hampton Bays movie theater will close for good following it’s final showings this Thursday night, January 29.
According to the Regal UA website the final movies at the theater will be Thursday night’s 7:45 showing of “Greenland 2: Migration” after which no further showings are listed.
The cinema’s manager confirmed that the theater will close this week — a decision made between the theater’s parent company Cineworld and the property’s landlord, WDP Enterprises.
The theater was shuttered for more than a year during the coronavirus pandemic and had been on the chopping block as Cineworld went through bankruptcy in the wake of the pandemic.
The property’s owner, Walter Morris, told the press in 2023 that he had been working on retooling the theater building to be taken over by a CVS even before the pandemic and Cineworld’s financial troubles.
But the CVS idea had proven too complicated and foundered. The Cineworld shifted gears.
After initially being told by the European theater company — which owns Regal Cinemas, the second largest movie theater chain in the U.S. — that it did not want to renew its lease for the Hampton Bays cinema, the company reconsidered. Having emerged from bankruptcy that spring, and buoyed by the surge in cinema business driven by the “Barbenheimer” double-feature fad that summer, Cineworld told WDP Enterprises that it wished to keep the theater operating and had applied for a license to sell beer and wine at the theater from the New York State Liquor Authority.
The license was granted and remains active — and beer and wine will be sold at this week’s final showings.
Nobody from WDP Enterrises, which owns the entire strip mall that contains the cinema, could be reached for comment about the future of the property’s anchor storefront on Monday afternoon.
