CALEXICO, Calif. (KYMA) – The only movie theater in Calexico is permanently closing its doors.
Calexico City Manager Benjamin Martinez confirmed the closure of the Calexico 10 Theatres through a press release.
The decision, according to the press release, points to an unsustainable financial situation.
Calexico 10 Theatres was the city’s only movie theater and was a gathering place for families along the border.
It survived the 2010 Easter Sunday earthquake and the COVID-19 pandemic.
The last day of operations is Sunday, May 3, 2026. To learn more about the theater’s closure, click here.
