I would like to start a movie theater.?

Question

I have no idea who I would talk to for more info in this area. Can I start my own like a dollar show or do I have to work with a large franchises like Star, MJR, etc.

Would anyone have a rough Idea of the total it would cost to build & run a movie theatre. I am in a good area that does not have may open.

Answer 1

You're probably talking at least $500,000 to $1 million to open a working movie theater. I know someone who did it and it cost even more than that.

Answer 2

If you have the money just look for anyone selling their

movie theater franchise. Back in the 80's a friend of

mine bought a movie theater from a guy who was

getting too sick to run it.

But before you do that, get yourself a business consultant.

Owning a movie theater, I like the sound of that.

If you're serious about it, go for it and good luck.
