The Majestic opened in 1911 and closed in 1986. After renovation in the 1990s, the city of Biggar now uses the theater for community events and performances. The Majestic also screens movies three nights a week.

The Biggar museum has a reconstruction of what the Majestic looked like before 1929—> http://www.biggarmuseum.com/theatre.jpg
The Majestic Theatre, located at the corner of 4th Avenue and Main Street has been a landmark in the town since it was first built and started operating in 1911. The original building was enlarged substantially in 1916 and was again enlarged and renovated to it’s present size and appearance in 1929. It was closed in 1986 and sat unused until 1991 when a non-profit corporation, The Biggar and District Theatre Project, was formed to purchase and renovate the building. A two level addition at the rear of the theatre was built to provide space for meeting rooms and a kitchen was also added. The new theatre opened in 1995 and is used for a variety of community events such as weekly movies, live theatre performances, Arts Council presentations, music and caro festivals and school programs.
