AMC Thoroughbred 20

Opened on November 26, 1999, the Thoroughbred 20 is one of the finest multiplexes in Metro Nashville and the best Carmike theater in middle Tennessee. Four of the Thoroughbred’s twenty stadium seating auditoriums are equipped with giant screens and THX sound. The original opening seating capacity was 4,800.

In 2018 it was reseated and the total seating capacity was reduced to 3,185.
