Bagdad Theater

Popular pub and picture palace This marvelous relic of Hollywood's Golden Age is a movie palace full of wonder and surprises.

For nearly four generations now, the Bagdad's Mediterranean/neon persona and daily films have made it an icon of Portland's vibrant Hawthorne District. The interior is an attraction in and of itself, with barreled arches, ornate wrought-iron fixtures, brilliant mosaics and painted Mediterranean designs and characters.

Taking a break from alcohol? Sober curious? Just not feeling booze tonight? We’ve got options 👀✨

From CBD and THC beverages to fully non-alcoholic favorites like the Sparkling Sunflower, Sparkling Ruby, and Sparky, there are plenty of ways to sip something fun without the alcohol.

Because “what are the NA options?” deserves better than just water and a sad soda.

You really never know what you’ll see outside Bagdad Pub. 🌎✨

This time, SOLVE stopped by for a neighborhood litter cleanup in the neighborhood! They turned the block into part cleanup crew, part community celebration, and fully a reminder that taking care of the planet can still be a good time.

Honestly, love that energy.

Guess you’ll just have to stop by and see what the neighborhood gets up to next. 👀

May the 4th be with you… always. 🌌

A new mission is on the horizon at Bagdad Theater.

The Mandalorian & Grogu is coming soon to the big screen! An all-new Star Wars adventure where the galaxy is still messy, Imperial warlords are doing what they do best (refusing to go quietly), and the New Republic is trying its best to keep things together.

Enter: Din Djarin and Grogu. Yes. That Din. That Grogu. 🥹

Legendary bounty hunter. Tiny green chaos apprentice. One extremely important mission.

May 22, 2026, only in theaters. But today, on May the 4th, we’re just here to say: get ready. Because the Force (and Grogu’s big eyes) are calling.

Gird your loins. 👗

We’re showing The Devil Wears Prada 2 early starting Thursday, April 30th at Bagdad Theater! Before it arrives anywhere else, before May 1st, before the world collectively remembers how deeply it fears Miranda Priestly’s silence.

Twenty years after Miranda Priestly made silence feel like a survival skill, Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci are stepping back into the heels, the chaos, and the judgmental eye contact that launched a thousand “Is that all?” moments.

You already know what to expect:
• Cerulean-level monologues that changed your brain chemistry
• “Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking.” energy, eternally
• The return of professional emotional damage delivered in couture
• And at least one moment where you whisper, “I would die for Miranda Priestly, actually.”

Tickets are online now. That’s all. (And yes, that was the warning.)

See you at Runway. (Or, you know… the Bagdad. Same thing.)

You’ve looked up. You’ve wondered. You’ve probably even asked us, “How do they change those lightbulbs?” 👀

Well, here’s your answer.

A rare behind-the-scenes look at the chandelier at Bagdad Theater getting a little maintenance moment. Not something you see every day, but definitely something you’ve thought about at least once.

Mystery = solved.

Either way, bring your A-game, we’ll be here cheering on every warp zone.
