Phoenix Theatres to Launch Flagship Location at Patriot Place
Michigan-Based Company Making a Multi-Million Dollar Investment to Introduce First-Class Amenities, Including Heated Reclining Seats Featuring Dolby ATMOS Immersive Sound
December 10, 2025
Foxborough, Mass., December 10, 2025 – Patriot Place and Phoenix Theatres announced today that a new movie-going experience will be coming to the premiere shopping, dining and entertainment destination in the summer of 2026. Phoenix Theatres will bring first-run movies and first-class amenities to Patriot Place, including heated reclining love seats and Dolby ATMOS immersive sound in every auditorium.
The 25-year-old independently owned movie theatre company plans a multi-million dollar investment to refurbish the 14-screen theatre, creating a new premiere moviegoing experience in the greater Boston area. Renovation plans are being developed for the 75,347-square-foot building, which will feature all-new premium reclining heated seating, 4K laser digital projection, Dolby ATMOS immersive sound, first-run movies and family-friendly pricing.
The Patriot Place location marks the 93rd screen for Michigan-based Phoenix Theatres, which operates theatres in Michigan, Ohio, Iowa, Tennessee and Massachusetts. This is the second location in Massachusetts for Phoenix Theatres, which currently operates the Beacon Cinema in Pittsfield. Phoenix Theatres expects to welcome its first Patriot Place moviegoers in summer of 2026.
“There’s nothing quite like a night out at the movies, and we’re thrilled to team up with Phoenix Theatres to bring their premium theatre experience to Patriot Place,” said Brian Earley, Vice President and General Manager of Patriot Place. “Their multi-million-dollar investment will revitalize our theatre space with immersive sound, heated reclining seats, crystal-clear projection and more. We knew after our first meeting with the Phoenix team that they have an incredible commitment to creating an unforgettable moviegoing experience at family-friendly prices and we can’t wait to welcome our guests to enjoy the show next summer.”
Cory Jacobson, President of Phoenix Theatres, says the company was fortunate to be selected for the opportunity at Patriot Place and looks forward to bringing the brand’s own unique amenities to the greater New England region.
“Phoenix was originally formed with the idea of refurbishing closed theatres in viable retail areas and returning well-operated neighborhood theatres to their respective communities,” explained Jacobson. “We could not be more thrilled to be a part of the energy and excitement that surrounds Patriot Place. The exceptional mix of retail, dining, entertainment and hospitality makes Patriot Place a world class destination that deserves a world class theatrical experience. Having successfully operated a theatre in the Berkshires over the past 7 years, we are eager to bring our signature brand of quality presentation and amenities to the greater Boston Area.”
As a reflection of what residents can expect, the 4 ENCORE auditoriums will feature:
Every seat in every auditorium will be a large, fully reclining, heated loveseat with an adjustable middle armrest and ample legroom.
Every auditorium will feature Dolby ATMOS for a premium, immersive audio experience- a first of its kind in New England.
4K Christie digital laser projection.
Phoenix Theatres mobile app and online tickets that allow guests to reserve their seats at home or on the go.
Self-serve Pepsi beverage and butter stations for added service speed and customer convenience.
Family-friendly prices.
Jordan Hohman, Vice President of Project Development for Phoenix Theatres, shared that the company focuses on providing premium amenities along with the little details that large national theatre chains cannot provide at a local level. “We continuously strive to raise the standard of moviegoing with innovations that improve the customer experience. We were one of the first circuits in the United States to offer 100 percent heated reclining seats in every auditorium. Our goal is to deliver a premier moviegoing experience with cutting-edge projection and Dolby ATMOS sound complemented by comfortable luxurious amenities.”
Existing employees of the theatre and others who are interested in applying for a position can visit www.phoenixmovies.net to submit their application online.
Renovations will begin in January and Phoenix Theatres Patriot Place is planning to open its doors in summer of 2026.

Michigan-based Phoenix Theatres was founded in 2000 and has four Michigan theatres in Wayne, Monroe, Livonia and Grand Rapids.
