According to a news report in October of 2011, the Harkins Arcadia 8 was slated for closure. The theater opened December 16, 1988 and was described by the Arizona Star as “aging”.
Harkins agreed with the state Attorney General to equip all of its theaters by January 15, 2013 to comply with the Americans with disabilities act.
An exemption would be applied to the Harkins 8 because it was to be closed and such a move would create a financial hardship. In 2013 the Arcadia 8 was still open and its website listed two of its amenities as “Disabled Accessible” and “Assistive Listening Devices”.
It was closed February 10, 2014.
