The Brainerd Theatre was designed by the Minneapolis architectural firm Liebenberg & Kaplan.

This theater was part of the Home Theaters Co. in the early sixties, headquartered out of Brainerd. Other Home theaters at the time were the Ely in Ely, the Border and Grand in International Falls, the Park in Park Rapids and the Avalon and Falls theaters in Thief River Falls. Home president was Frank Mantzke.
