Located in the Van Horne Building of 1888 at the corner of Granville Street and Dunsmuir Street. The Kinemacolour Theatre was opened on February 24, 1913. It was the first movie theatre in town to screen colour films via special filters.
In 1915 it was renamed Colonial Theatre. The Colonial Theatre sat 873 and operated as a first-run house for much of its existence.
The Colonial Theatre was closed as a movie theatre on March 22, 1968. It was then used as a concert venue until around 1972 and was demolished in 1972.
For physical events that happen at a specific time. For example a concert, or dance performance. If there are multiple shows, you can still duplicate your event to cover them all.
