The Aurora Theatre and Popcorn Shop

So cool. Thanks Jeff.

Let’s change the marquee Monday to AFC Champs. The Aurora Popcorn Shop will be open Sunday from 1-4 to get your go to game popcorn. Go Bills!!!!!

To our fantastic customers and supporters...as we start the new year, the situation within New York State and the movie exhibition industry unfortunately has not improved. We are faced with attendance restrictions, events are not permitted and, based on no indoor dining, we cannot sell concessions. Add to that a lack of new movies being released and most pushing back their release dates until at least Spring. It is unfortunate but it is what we must deal with. Based on th...ese factors, The Aurora Theatre will "taking an intermission" at the close of business Thursday January 7th. WE ARE NOT CLOSING. This a temporary situation and although not determined yet, we are looking to show movies again in April or sooner should circumstances change. The Aurora Popcorn Shop will continue to offer popcorn to go and on-line. During this time we will be on working and exciting new ways to take The Aurora into the future with new programs and events. Thank you for all your support and we will be back on the big screen soon. See more

Anyone remember this? Before we owned The Aurora.

To a brighter 2021!

There was major announcement from Warner Bros. yesterday about how they will be releasing new movies in 2021. The Aurora would appreciate your thoughts on this.

The road to re-opening has been long and we need to get it right. That being said, we will be re-opening for public screenings next weekend-Halloween weekend. We could not have gotten to this point without the amazing support from our community, our customers and neighboring businesses. Your support is still needed as we re-open with new rules and guidelines. Please take a moment to review how we will be operating when we open as part of the national Cinemasafe program. https://www.cinemasafe.org/

Almost 7 months from the day we were mandated to close, we have permission to re-open as of October 23rd. We are awaiting the guidelines and based on reviewing them we will determine our next steps to bringing movies back to the big screen. Thank you all for your support during these times and for your continued support as we ensure a safe movie going experience for all. https://www.governor.ny.gov//governor-cuomo-announces-most
