News About This Theater
- Jan 22, 2008 — Milan cinemas added to Cinema Treasures
The Cinema Apollo is in the center of Milan, behind the Duomo, on Corso Vittorio Emanuele #11, in the Galleria De Cristoforis 2. It is behind the tiny entrance between small shops. This huge, modern single screen cinema had 1,200 seats including a balcony that has a raised section and two small sections on each side.
The Cinema Apollo opened in 1959 and was converted into a four screen cinema in the early-2000’s. It was operated by the Spazio Cinemas chain. It was still open in November 2008, but had closed by 2010. When seen in September 2019, its days seemed numbered as demolition was going on all around it.
