Landmark closed the Coronet Theatre on March 16, 1998. Here’s the ad from its last day of operation:
Prince George Citizen – March 16, 1998 (page 19)
And the ad for the Coronet from the following day (which has the word “CLOSED” plastered over the ad):
Prince George Citizen – March 17, 1998 (page 27)
Famous Players closed the Plaza 400 on October 1, 1992, and it was reopened by Landmark as the Coronet just over two months later on December 11, 1992. Links below:
Prince George Citizen, October 1, 1992 (movie listings on page 27 – the movies “Twin Peaks” and “Innocent Blood” are announced as ending Thursday at the Plaza 400, with no listings for that theatre thereafter)
Prince George Citizen, October 2, 1992 (front page article – “Famous Players fades to black”)
Prince George Citizen, December 10, 1992 (movie listings on page 32 – announcing opening movies for December 11 at the reopened Coronet)
Grand opening ad in photo section.
Here’s a photo of what happened to the old Plaza 400/Coronet theatre space not long after the Coronet closed. Appears the former cinemas were converted into a casino called Casino Hollywood for a few years.
A picture of the theatre as the Plaza 400 can be seen here.
