Very little information on this theatre. It opened on 28th August 1930. It was closed in 1995 and was re-opened after a restoration in the fall of 2005. A second screen has been added to the building, but this doesn’t interfere with the original auditorium space.

Kind of a neat article in the local Saskatoon website about the Roxy. Sounds like a place worth visiting.
