Paramount Theatre

MAY we interest you in… a packed calendar? Come visit the Paramount in our last full month of shows before we close in mid-June for the Shine On restoration project ✨ (We’ll still be at State Theatre next door and popping up with shows in other iconic venues around town!) 🎫 Link in bio.

Summer Films Are Back 🌤️🎬 JUST ANNOUNCED: The 52nd annual Summer Classic Film Series is here — and it’s going to be a summer like no other before. Before the Paramount temporarily closes in mid-June for our Shine On restoration, we’ll be cramming three weeks of 35mm prints and partner screenings into our historic movie palace before we say a temporary goodbye. (We thought SINGIN’ IN THE RAIN would make it a little easier…) Then the movies keep rolling all summer long at the State Theatre with family favorites, cult classics, international gems, your favorite curated themes, and plenty of other surprises we’ve got in store through August. And for the first time ever: Summer Classic Film Series is going IMAX 🤯 Seating is limited for IMAX screenings, and our Film Fan Club members get presale access to the first three we’re announcing today (JAWS, THE WIZARD OF OZ IN 3D, 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY) before they go on sale to the general public next Wednesday, 5/20. 🎟️ Film Fan Club members get first access to IMAX tickets before they go on sale to the public next Wednesday, May 20th. Join now for presale access, discounted tickets, and more at the link below.

Beware what you dream for 🎞️ Celebrate the 25th Anniversary of MULHOLLAND DRIVE with a rare 35mm screening at the Paramount Theatre on Sunday, May 24th. Dreams, doubles, unanswered questions, terrifying tiny old people… David Lynch’s hypnotic masterpiece has it all. A tale of love, jealousy, revenge, and Hollywood illusion that only gets stranger the deeper you go. 🎟️ Single tickets at the link in bio.

111 years of the Paramount, 91 years of the State, and one hell of a road trip romance! ❤️ Thank you to everyone who filled Congress Avenue with big hearts, 70s glamour and enough love to carry these theatres into their next chapter. From the cocktails to the dancing to the stories shared under the marquee, y’all made this year’s gala feel like the journey really is the destination!

The beloved Austin tradition returns 🌙 CASABLANCA comes to the Paramount Theatre in breathtaking 35mm on Friday, May 22nd as part of the Summer Classic Film Series.⁠ ⁠ For over 80 years, audiences have returned to this film to lose themselves inside Rick’s Café Américain, to linger in the romance between Rick and Ilsa, to hear Sam play “As Time Goes By,” and to feel the swell of hope and resistance that still makes “La Marseillaise” one of the most stirring moments in cinematic history.⁠ ⁠ Here’s looking at you, kid 🎞️⁠ ⁠ 🎫 Double feature with THE MALTESE FALCON (1941). One ticket gets you into both screenings. Opening Night will sell out!
