Welcome to the Hollywood Theatre's press page!
The Hollywood Theatre is Portland, Oregon's historic nonprofit theatre, featuring innovative programming, 35mm and 70mm screenings, special guest appearances from notable directors and filmmakers, community events, festivals, and much more. In addition to our historic 1926 theater on Northeast Sandy, we also own and operate the Hollywood at Portland International Airport, a 17-seat microcinema showing free Oregon made films; and Movie Madness, Portland's independent video store, featuring a world-class collection of 80,000+ titles.
