It has been the pleasure of our family to serve our community for the past 5 and a half years, and we would like to thank all of you for your unwavering support.

As of Friday, March 7, our family will cease to operate Vista Theatre, and it will transfer to the Magic Lantern Theatre group. MLT has agreed to accept Vista Theatre coupons for a period of 6 months. We wish Magic Lantern Theatres all the best as they resume operations here in Whitecourt.

There will not be a movie playing the week of February 28 - March 6. Any tentative private rentals after March 2 will need to be discussed with the new management. At this time, we do not have a confirmed date for reopening.
