B&B Theatres to Open 14-Screen Jackson, MS Location September 3

The location, which B&B Theatres took over from a former Regal on the property in May 2019, was initially scheduled to open in mid-2020. B&B Theatres announced the closure of all their 50 locations on March 18 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and began reopening some of their locations in drive-in form in early May. This indoor reopening is timed to the release of Warner Bros.’ Tenet, the first major theatrical tentpole to to open post-pandemic.

The chain ranked seventh in Boxoffice PRO‘s annual “Giants of Exhibition 2020” ranking of the largest exhibitors domestically. The Kansas City, Missouri-based company’s locations are scattered across the South and Midwest, including Florida, Iowa, Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Texas.

This new 14-auditorium venue represents the chain’s second location in Mississippi, along with a location in Vicksburg.
