The Laemmle Monica Film Center Opens Friday, January 29th!

January 26, 2016 by Lamb L.

UPDATE 1: Online tickets are now available. Go to and bookmark http://www.laemmle.com/theaters/3 for titles, showtimes, and more.

UPDATE 2: We’re open!

The wait is nearly over! After almost two years of development and construction, the all new Laemmle Monica Film Center opens this Friday, January 29th!

Second floor mezzanine. Chandelier coming soon.
Second floor mezzanine. Chandelier coming soon.

The Monica Theatre on 2nd Street has been a fixture in the Santa Monica arts scene for 44 years – first as the “Monica Twin” and since 1981 as the “Monica 4-Plex.” Now, after a complete rebuild, the venue’s storied past projects to an even brighter future.

The Monica Film Center now has six auditoriums, all with digital projection, comfy seating, and optimally proportioned, intimate viewing. Adjacent to the two auditoriums upstairs is a mezzanine lounge. In a first for us, visitors will soon be able to order beer and wine from the concession stand.

Later this year, Flower Child will open in the ground-floor restaurant space. A second restaurant, to be announced, will open on the rooftop deck.

Online tickets are available now. The films opening Friday are:

THE 2016 OSCAR-NOMINATED SHORT DOCUMENTARIES
ANOMALISA
THE LADY IN THE VAN
MUSTANG
THEEB

Thank you for your patience! We think you’ll agree that it has been worth the wait!

Be sure to follow @laemmle and @laemmlemonica on Twitter. You can also find us on Facebook at Laemmle Theatres and Laemmle Monica Film Center. Let’s not forget Instagram where we’re @laemmletheatres.

Quick tour of the Monica Film Center! Set to open Friday! #santamonica #sneakpreview #Laemmle
