AMC Theaters acquired this theater from Starplex Cinemas on December 16, 2015, along with the Hays 8 and Salina 10 in Kansas. The three theaters appear to be the first AMC theaters in Kansas that are not located in the Kansas City metro area.
Information is available at their official website amctheatres.com.
This theatre as well as the Salina 10 and Hays 8 have been closed by AMC.
During the severe storms in April, the roof above AMC Salina 10 experienced significant failure, resulting in extensive water intrusion and major damage throughout multiple areas of the theatre. After evaluation and discussion with the property owner, AMC made the difficult decision to not renew its lease, which ends this month, and has permanently ceased operations at AMC Salina 10
According to our records, the theater was originally known as the Dickinson Mall Cinema 8 - Pittsburg Theatre (Dickinson Theatres). Showplex Cinemas bought the movie theater in 2010 and it was renamed to the Mall 8 Pittsburg.
Starplex Cinemas acquired Showplex Cinemas in 2013, and it became the Starplex Cinemas Mall Cinema 8. and later became the Starplex Cinemas - Pittsburgh 8.
It changed to AMC Pittsburg 8 after AMC acquired Starplex Cinemas in 2015. It was rebranded to AMC Classic Pittsburg 8 in April 2017.
