Built as a bowling alley, the Plaza Cinema opened with one screen in 1969 and was twinned in 1975. The theatre closed in 1989 and was reopened briefly in 1999 as the Oakville Plaza Cinemas. It closed again in 2001.

This theatre was part of the National General Circuit and later, part of Cineplex Odeon.

This theatre at Speers and Kerr is now being turned into a church.

This buildings address is 131 Speers Road Oakville Ontario.

It was not originaly constructed as a Cinema but started off life as a bowling alley.

When it was converted to cinematic use they had to install a floor that sloped above the original floor however the gradient was never sufficient to be suitable for viewing.

Regular patrons such as myself knew to leave every second row vacant so that no one would be sitting in front of you.

This served as an “Encore Cinema” before Encore took over the building at 171 Speers Road which has its own entry here.

DOT Furniture has moved in to the retail space adjacent to this theatre and has painted the exterior blue. Kind of weird to see after all these years.
