Louisville, KY: Village 8 Theatres Closing Soon [May 16, 2022]
The theater was demolished.
Reopened per: https://www.bigscreen.com/Marquee.php?theater=3441
Last day of operation was actually 7/5/2022.
Apex Theatres Circuit closed the Village 8 on March 18, 2020 for the COVID-19 pandemic. After having some weekend popcorns sales, the theatre reopened June 12, 2020 but closed six weeks later on July 31, 2020. The theatre bucked the trend of discount houses that closed permanently during COVID-19 by returning with a grand reopening on July 1, 2021 playing sub-run discount films. Unfortunately, the vast majority of discount houses in the United States did not survive through 2021/2022. The Village 8 experimented with first-run fare beginning in September of 2021 before announcing its permanent closure on April 21, 2022 to occur at month’s end.
