Overview edit

Boulevard Theatres opened its first location May 2022 in Towne West Square.[2] The location is in the former Warren Theatres Movie Machine, a 5 screen multiplex.[3] In preparing this theatre for opening, Boulevard Theatres installed new projectors and sound, refreshed the auditoriums and remodeled the lobby and concessions area, introducing Wichita's first fully self-serve movie theatre concessions.[4]
