Movie Theater
Take a trip down memory lane to the days when bands were big and movies were just beginning to talk. The Catalina Casino epitomizes everything glamorous about Santa Catalina Island.
You'll see the extraordinary Art Deco murals and a classic 1929 pipe organ inside the Avalon Theatre, which still shows movies on its massive screen. You will get to see brand new video showing the history of this iconic building.
Tickets are $10 and include $2 off admission to the newly remodeled Catalina Island Museum (a $5 value.)
The Casino building is a working theater, ballroom, and concert hall to this day. Focusing on the cultural history of the building, this one-of-a-kind tour brings you unprecedented access to backstage areas that very few people are allowed to see.
You will experience this historic building like never before. Visit the “green” rooms used by Errol Flynn and Cary Grant, walk across the stage where Benny Goodman played before thousands of adoring fans, and see the editing room where Cecil B. DeMille viewed the “rushes” of the day’s movie shoot. Tickets are priced at $24 (excludes taxes and fees).
The Avalon Theatre is located in the lower level of the Catalina Casino. It features first-run movies and seats 1,184 people. The theatre is 138 feet across and 43 feet high. Art deco murals by John Gabriel Beckman adorn the walls and create a glamorous ambiance.
Movie tickets: Adults $15, Seniors $13 (age 55 and older) and Children $13 (ages 2-11)
