Festival Theaters Palm Springs — Local services in Palm Springs

LOCALS - DO NOT BOTHER GOING TO THIS THEATER!! New management does not care at all about local patrons! We showed up a half hour early to purchase tickets for a scheduled movie. They told us they cancelled that showing and we could come back in 4 hours for the next showing - which they could not confirm they wouldn’t cancel at will either!! We said the cancelled showing was still showing as available on the website. We spoke to the manager and they said “Sorry, but too bad, we have more important things to worry about”. No concern or remorse or concession was given. Not a good first impression for a new business to try and win back the loyal patrons of the previous Regal Cinemas at this location. Why would new management sabotage local patron loyalty?? I guess they feel just catering to the annual PS Film Festival for one week will also pay the bills for the remaining 51 weeks of the year. With the arrogant and dismissive attitude of new management towards locals, you’ll be closed soon! What a shame a local staple...

We were really disappointed the entire movie house was turned by the new owner - according to local rag an Indian Business men surely tech bro vs Indian of spring of an oligarch- to an art house/ adult only / R rated flicks that no one wants to watch -unless they are on antidepressants. Typical of someone with cash backing to shove their taste down the throat of an entire town, claiming they know what we like. There are families and kids and next generation of movie goers in this town and you bought our only movie house and converted to your taste and we will wait until you run out of money and or tax man finds out that this is a write down for your tax evading scheme, believe me we already alerted authorities about unusual purchase. I blame Regal for selling this lovely theater to you , but when you go belly up we will return to celebrate your demise , until then enjoy being an outside investor who is obviously out of touch with town's reality. We really really dislike you for taking away enjoyment of our...

I absolutely love this theater. Every visit has been a positive experience—the seating is comfortable, the A/C always keeps the theater nice and cool, and the staff are warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind. What makes it stand out even more is the film selection: not only do they bring in great new releases, but they also host revival screenings of older classics you don’t often get to see on the big screen anymore. It’s such a treat to have an independent theater like this nearby, without having to drive to a big chain that doesn’t support the community in the same way. I’m so glad to have this gem in town and can’t recommend it...
