Gig Harbor Cinemas

This small, nondescript theater is tucked away off a main street in Gig Harbor. It opened as the Harbo Mall Cinema on November 26, 1982. It has three small auditoriums.

It closed in early-2008 right before the fancy ten-screen Galaxy Uptown opened nearby. At the time of its closure, it was 25-years old.

Hmm. When I submitted this theater, I listed Regal as the most recent owner.

This theater is currently being used as a church. The Galaxy 10 plex down the street from this theater is all video projection. I’ve been hearing nothing but complaints about that new theater and how screwed up the video projectors are.

This theater had all Ballantyne Pro-35 projectors, Ballantyne Model 7 soundheads, Ballantyne “VIP” pedestals, and Strong Super Lume-x 2,000 watt xenon lamphouses. Also had Strong 3-deck platters.

While there was certainly plenty of room on the property to expand the theater, it never happened.
