Heather Lucas

I attended the Valentine's Day showing of Dirty Dancing presented by the movie gang and it was AWESOME! Great view from our seats which were in the balcony, but it was very clean and beautiful inside the facilities. There was a live dance performance, Valentine's and roses handed out, as well as heart shaped balloons dropped from the balcony during the dance performance. Great job Franklin theater on partnering with so many other awesome local vendors to put on such a great event. I'll definitely be back!

What a wonderful little quaint movie theater in one of the best little downtowns ever. The theater has recently been renovated and sports a brand new theater Marquee outside. Everything inside is extremely nice and they have a wonderful staff. I have been here many times and would highly recommend it.

Tracie Helton

The concerts are wonderful! Love the balcony seating.

Dave Slagle

This is a very nice theater. It’s older and fairly small, but the decorations and atmosphere are hard to beat and it takes you back in time. The theater staff is very helpful and friendly and it’s not too hard to find if you are visiting …

Carrie Finnegan

Beautiful theater. We visited for a Second City show and enjoyed our experience there.

Pretty cool place for a small town. Loved it.

Maxwell Coomer

The Franklin Theater is a wonderful venue. Enjoy a glass of wine or a beer during the show, and there are all kinds of events held there, everything from classic movies to concerts. The theater first opened in 1937 and recently re-opened after a MAJOR renovation, which was incredibly well done. Whatever you go to see there, you will enjoy it.

Sir Paul Albi

Andy Geshwiler

Great family place. Love that we can support a local institution.

Mousetrap

I had not been there since the early 90's but I was impressed. The ticket prices were reasonable and I like that they still kept the option of chairs and tables. Sound was also great.

Andrew Tomlinson

A nice venue for local concerts. Great sound and beer on tap!

Mike Edwards

The movies are great but the music is amazing. They will also give a tour of you are walking by... as long as there's nothing else going on. You need to visit.

David Sivils

Very cool venue. Beer with a movie is awesome.

Dustin Owens

Love this venue. From Lynda Carter to Kevin Bacon and John Schneider, you couldn't ask for better performances or a better venue.

Marilyn Vaughn

Nice smaller musical venue.

Captain Busket TTV

The christmas specials each year always get the waterworks going. It's a wonderful life will always be my favorite movie, and I always want to see it here.

Buttdr01d

Love love LOVED this theatre! Visited the first time for The Movie Gang's showing of the first two Harry Potter movies! Getting sorted into my house by Chad Gilbert from New Found Glory was wonderful! Had such a great night and the theatre itself was beautiful! Will be back!

Clayton Marbrey

I love this theatre! When they show films it's setup as a throwback to a time before stadium seating. I also love the theatre groups that perform shows. I've seen 4 or 5, some from children's theatre groups and some from adult groups, and it's always an enjoyable experience. Also if you like beer Black Abbey has a few selections there. You must try "The 44" (previously called the POTUS 44). Hawaiian and Kenyan coffee infused stout, amazing flavour!

David Statz

Great place to see an old movie... We visit to watch White Christmas every year.

Zach K

I was there for Evan Farmer's pilot episode unveiling and man it was awesome... parking is an issue during the day.. but 4 hour parking is available just down the road... it is a great experience... a must have !!

Duane Fulps

Beautiful theater. Went to see Kelly Willis sing and had an incredible time. Great show fantastic atmosphere and intimate setting.

Counter Culture Mom

Oh my WORD! Just watched “White Christmas” and it was beautiful! Just a great family film. Packed with people who cheered and sang along with the actors. Loved the layout of the theater and the way they decorate it! Even the old time photos on the wall took me back in time! Will DEFINITELY be back ASAP!!

Keith camic

Great old school entertainment venue. Great place to see a show.

Jeffrey Dyer

Such a beautiful, retro movie theater that has been completely restored to it's original glory. I think it was built in 1937. We went here to watch "It's a Wondeful Life" (released in 1945, I think). It took us back in time. It even has a balcony.

j phillips

Renovated classic downtown theater. They do a good job of live performances and movies in a nice facility..

Fabulous Venue! Attended Ray Wylie Hubbard Concert April 13, 2018! We had an awesome time! The sound system is great in this theater setting, this was a Sold Out show, but very comfortable!

Great experience! I recommend that everyone catch a concert here!

I love the intimacy and acoustics of this great venue. Parking is free +nearby. Good performances sell out early. Helpful ticket office too. I strongly prefer the cabaret seating.

Bud Garner

Another superb entertainer with Larry Carlton. Always comfortable seating wirh great views.

Matthew Rogers

This restored and modernized theatre remains the heart of downtown Franklin. The sound system, the talent, the seating, the architecture, the bar, the staff.. the whole environment is beautiful and true to the Franklin spirit. If you haven't stopped by, please come see a show.

Jon Paul Miles

Beautiful design. The inside and bathroom is really pretty and clean. The theater is nice and small. However most of the movie's sound comes from speakers up front near the screen so you don't really have the surround sound experience. Takes a minute to get used to, but it's loud enough and wasn't a problem for us. There are no trailers before the movie starts.

Kay Hill

Some pretty big stars for a small place. Great views! Loved seeing Deborah Allen! My favorite! Looking forward to seeing Exile!

Randy Gardner

Great venue for intimate concerts and movies. Friendly staff. Production people are top notch!

Mark

Tom Perry

Great venue for movies, music and plays. Awesome family outing.

Rachel Cornelius

We go here for a lot of different kinds of events. We always feel comfortable and have a blast. Concessions are good, bathrooms are always spotless, staff is friendly, and the theater itself has been beautifully restored. Plus, the tickets are usually very reasonably priced, and like I said, they offer a wide range of events, from classic movies to live music performances. I feel like this place is a hidden gem. But I like it that way. There's never too many people. It's just a nice, relaxed place.

Cooper Todd

Love this place, very friendly staff,great place for concerts...

Mica Mitchell

Local, intimate theater group putting on productions of modern Broadway plays and musicals. They are very active in the community, and often work with aspiring young actors. Super fun, go have dinner at Red Pony before the show. Leave time for parking.

Mike Midgley

Great place to see The Cowboy Junkies. Nice intimate venue for seeing a favorite group.

Wow! What a great experience! Theater from before my time. Really nice. They had free refills of the popcorn and cokes. They sell beer, local stuff too. I would like to get back to a live show here.

Jeremiah Wooten

This place is great. When I was a little kid, they had free movie Wednesdays during the summer that I would love. When they did the renovations and restored the theater they really made it into the awesome thing that it was! Altogether it is a very awesome theater!

Donald B. French

Great venue. Excellent acoustics and sound system.

Jason Eiceman

Old school theatre with some modern updates. Intimate I'd say. Not too big, not too small. Lots of legroom in the regular seats. Cocktails / liquor available. Prices are reasonable for a place like this. Probably on par with most bars. I …

Rodger Cook

Amazing local theater that draws wonderful talent! A small and intimate venue for rising and established entertainers.

Ron Miller

Great venue, friendly helpful faces, great performance from Keb'Mo', but bring a jacket, they keep it cold.

Ted Parton

Great place to catch a movie or concert. It has the classic movie theater feel, and it doesn't break the bank to take a family to see a movie. When the restoration was done in 2010/2011, they did a great job.

Keith Wilson

Great theater. Will definitely be back for more shows!

Rob Kingrey

Awesome local theater. Comfy, cozy with great actors and production. Sets and scrim backing were professional

Awesome venue

The Keifer Sutherland concert was fantastic!! The employees, standing in the aisle beside me, trying to talk over the music was not!! This went on the entire concert.

Jennifer Boisseau

Beautiful! Great venue for a work event.

Spastus Cat

Fantastic old-time theater!

David Dalton

I've gone to the Franklin Theater numerous times now. There is not a better atmosphere, better service in all of Nashville in my opinion. There's something special about this place and the people that renovated and brought it back to life put their heart and soul into making it the crown of downtown Franklin.

Myla McCoy

Great venue!

Cheryl H M

Loved seeing a play here, grest movie night too.

Janet B

It's a great place. Highly recommend it.

Kevin The Fantastic!

Very nice!

Patrick Winter

Nice theater and always a blessing to see & hear Steven Curtis Chapman!

Steven Dycus

The Franklin Theatre has become so much more to the community than just a Main Street movie theater. It’s now a symbolic iconic landmark for all to see as they make their way up and down Historic Main Street in Franklin Tennessee. Locals and tourists alike will fill the seats during any performance. Beyond movies, stage plays and live performances — the historically accurate remodel will have you stepping back into time. Highly recommend seeing a holiday film during the month of December — the perfect venue for escaping into A Miracle/White Christmas/Wonderful Life!

David Northrop

Always a delight. Love the atmosphere of this theater. Great service. Very nice variety of food. Love that they pop their popcorn in coconut oil! Awesome!

Jenn Floodstrom

Great little theatre! Very friendly staff.

Chadwick Williams

Very cool venue, check out some shows here if you get the chance!

Andrei Dumitrescu

A great small theater for community productions and events. Not only is it in the heart of a great district with shops and restaurants all around, but there's easy free parking nearby. They offer great snacks and drinks, kids and adult friendly both. Really a gem.

Otis Allen

Franklin theatre is a great deal on movies with refillable large popcorns and drinks at a lower price than the chains as well as lower than usual ticket prices as well. On top of that they often have concerts, stand up comedians, and theatre productions. A great part of what makes Franklin a good place to visit.

Bill Lazenby

Small theatre but nicely decorated and has a good selection of food and drink. Close enough to performers to feel more involved with the concert. Good parking garage near by.

Jane Tomlinson

Very nice way to experience a concrete. Will be back to see other entertainers.

Dennis Parish

Always a superb experience!

Jill Kilgore

I love this historic movie palace. The acoustics are incredible for a live performance, which feels intimate. I would highly recommend seeing a concert there, but you can also see movies, including old movies. The theatre feels like you're stepping back in time. The renovations and attention to detail are beautiful. It's centered on Main Street, which is a great spot for a historic walking tour with shops, restaurants and antiques.

RMartin Choate

Marc Cohn...fabulous

Bill Stewart

Caught Mary Gautier's show. She did not disappoint. This restored old theater is a great, intimate venue. They also have snacks and craft beer.

Frank Kovacic

Great little town. David had a great performance at the very quaint Franklin Theatre. The whole event felt like a Hallmark setting. Perfect place for a Christmas performance.

Caleb Mathias

Great movie theater that the town came together to save from being removed from history. I like that they show a mixture of new movies and classics, and it doubles as a venue for live acts from music to comedy. A staple of downtown Franklin that will hopefully remain for decades to come!

David Hardy

Franklin Theater embodies the heart of Franklin with its history and creativity. This is a great venue for any entertainment!

Matthew Kaufmann

The theatre is comfortable yet spacious. My family and I just attended an event there. We were discussing going back before the event even ended.

John F

This place was great. Amazing atmosphere and decoration.

Ines Zak

Small but beautiful and full of musical history. And the town is gorgeous.

David Stanley

A great throwback to a bygone era. Old style seating but still very nice.

Ronald Cronwell

A very nice old venue. Reserve a tabble. The theatre seats are narrow and cramped. Enjoyed two shows on consecutive nights. Will attand again.
