Daily features at 7:00pm ($5), and Saturday & Sunday matinees at 2:00pm ($4). The Regent Theatre is a one-screen, Art Deco theater that first started showing movies in 1919. It currently features first-run, new release films in state of the art digital projection. On the outside, the Regent boasts a glittering neon marquee that has acted as a beacon in historic downtown Allegan, Michigan since its
installation in the 1930's. On the backside of the brick building, a beautiful Art Deco-inspired mural painted by celebrated West Michigan artist José Narezo, adorns the wall to create a unique picture-taking opportunity. As you enter the chrome-handled doors into the tiled lobby, you're greeted by the glass-encased ticket booth, complete with a working, original ticket dispenser, before heading to the old-fashioned concession stand where you can purchase quality snacks at a reasonable price. The Regent is known for its delicious popcorn, freshly popped before and during each show. Once you've purchased your ticket and gathered your concessions, follow the uniquely patterned carpet into the auditorium and sit back in our comfortable and spacious seating. As you watch the movie play on one of the largest independent screens in the state of Michigan, the digital projection and surround sound will provide a quality viewing experience in a historic and chic movie house. In addition to first-run feature films, the Regent Theatre offers unique events year-round, made possible by generous local sponsors. The Free Summer Matinees that run from June-August feature free family-friendly movies on a weekly basis. During the month of October, each weekend features a different late night horror flick as part of the Shocktober series, and as part of Fa La La Fridays, a free holiday movie is shown every weekend in December leading up to Christmas. Whether you're a first time visitor or a lifelong patron, the Regent Theatre offers a unique moviegoing experience that satisfies casual moviegoers and cinephiles alike.
