We have reduced the number of tickets we sell to each show to allow for guests to socially distance themselves. We also follow thorough cleaning and sanitization schedules during all operating hours. While masking is no-longer mandatory in public spaces, guests are encouraged to take any necessary precautions to ensure their personal comfort and safety.
Our showtimes are all listed on the website, the marquee, and through our Instagram page.
At the Theatre itself and via this website.
We update our showtimes as soon as we've confirmed a film will be playing at The Plaza Theatre. Shows that are to be released on Friday will be confirmed and listed on our website by Tuesday morning of the same week.
The film community has always been incredibly supportive to The Plaza. We intend to continue building our relationships with the festival communities. We will also extend the space to welcome art and music festivals.
Yes! We will host our own events and make the space available to host private events. Please subscribe to our newsletter for regular updates and announcements.
Please complete our booking form with as much detail as possible about your event and we’ll get back to you.
The Plaza Theatre is a cashless business. We accept debit cards and credit cards as forms of payment.
We operate as a cashless business in an effort to reduce the number of physical points-of-contact, prevent loss/ theft, and to be able to offer exchanges/ refunds on show tickets.
BYO Baby is a relaxed, baby friendly, mid-morning film screening exclusively for parents/guardians and family members with babies under one. It takes place every Wednesday at 11:00 am. Stroller parking is available in the back of the auditorium. Baby changing facilities are available in our unisex and accessible washroom.
You'll see a film from our main programme, with the volume slightly lowered to protect sensitive ears. The lights will be dimmed, but not completely, so you can find your way around and see all your belongings. Best of all, you can feel free to get up and walk around as much as you need to during the screening. Babies tend to like the hum of the sound but, if they don't, crying and vocalising is absolutely fine. Judgement free space!
Please note, adults purchasing a BYO Baby ticket must be accompanied by a baby under one year old or will not be admitted.
We are in the process of getting gift cards that will be available for purchase. Please check back in May 2022 for info and updates.
Yes, we are wheelchair accessible. The doors are on the ground level with automatic openers to the west entrance. To make the auditorium more accessible, we've removed the back row of seating, and additional seating along the east side. We've also added an accessible washroom with a baby change station.
Yes, we do allow tickets to be returned or exchanged. We can access the transaction through our in-house system - please call 403-283-2222 or email hello@theplaza.ca and provide the following information: Name of person who purchased tickets, email address, the show the tickets were purchased for, and what show you want to exchange for.
