News About This Theater

Apr 30, 2010 — $2 million transforms former Harkins Theater at Paradise Valley Mall in AZ

Opened June 15, 1979 as a quad by General Cinema, it was taken over by Harkins Theaters around 1998, expanded eventually to seven screens, and then closed in 2004. It was reopened in 2010 by Picture Show Entertainments.

It was closed in January 2021 and was demolished in late-summer 2021.

Probably time to update the summary above as a new theatre was not built in its place, the same one was renovated.

Also it appears this theater is open so status should be changed to open.

Uploaded a photo of the entrance. Remember the day when the name of the theater was displayed not the parent company? And with all the changes happening the updates must cost a pretty penny.

My brother Tim Ralston worked here in the early 80’s. He took a couple of pictures and they might be the only photographic evidence of the original theater near the food court. https://flic.kr/p/wL5oRA https://flic.kr/p/vRwnFn
