The
89’er Theatre
First-run movies have arrived in Kingfisher! With three screens,
auditorium seating and digital sound, the new 89'er Theatre offers
big city entertainment with old-time cinema atmosphere (and ticket
prices to match!) Replacing the original 89'er Theatre, a Main
Street landmark that burned to the ground in March 2004, the new
theatre has downtown Kingfisher jumping after dark. |

Come visit soon, but be sure to buy your tickets early...this
theatre is playing to sell-out crowds! |
