#vantalks2018 great show

Amy Anderson

I love the Kiggins! It's such a fun, vintage-style theater experience. I like the screen and the seating. Everyone was nice and the candy and popcorn were good. They have unique movies that no one else has, and I dig that they play some of the old classics. Thank you Kiggins - we love you - we're coming tonight!

Tricia Diaz

I absolutely love the Kiggins! Awesome huge theater with fun movies - perfect for Rocky Horror Picture Show sort of audience participation. So cool to see a slice of downtown Vancouver's past being preserved.

Tiffany Burnette

This is my favorite place to see movies in the Vancouver area. It has a fun interior if you like historic theaters. They have a good selection of Indy films.

Marj Casswell

Science on Tap always interesting. Wine at Kiggins a very nice start.

Pat McDonnell

Beautifully renovated retro theater with beer and wine upstairs. Best damn movie theater popcorn in town.

JRUSS8O

Always seem to have a good vibe. Great prices on movies, and a pretty cool upstairs bar (small but feels nostalgic)

Jon Kitchens

Crown churxh is real, no fluff

BananaThorn

This theatre puts older movies up, like the Princess Bride. This is nice because most theaters just play new movies. Staff are very friendly.

Alexander Mich

It was so fun and the staff made it an amazing interactive experience!

Mike Bolle

We Love Kiggins! It real is a treasure! New owner/oper. Has done a great job renovating it. Downtown Vancouver has destroyed most of its history with the most recent loss of the classic Burgerville, the small grocery store that everybody remembers getting candy at, (that was right near kiggins) and of course the loss of the lucky lager Brewery ! Kiggins is the last piece of history in Vancouver

Mary Leafeld

We LOVE this theater. It always makes for a fun date night + the staff is very wonderful and friendly! Love supporting local. ;-)

Peter Wiessner

Saw the warren miller movie to kick off our ski season it WS a great venue with pizza and beer. I will be back!

Chris Deege

Good location. Older building, 1936. Very nostalgic. New seats since I eas last there.

Judy Pryse

Interior and seats very nice. Good film.

Haley S

Great parking in the back and the staff is incredibly helpful. Theater seats are incredibly comfortable with lots of leg room. Saw that they do Rocky Horror shows here, would be the perfect place to go see one.

Ankita Taneja

Visited for the comedy show on second Thurdays. Great laughs! The owner is sweet and welcoming. Definitely recommended!

M Terry

What a classic old theater.

Wes Lamkin

Super excited to see this place re-opened. A little piece of history is a great thing to keep around. The inside is much cleaner and the seats are now comfy. Still has the old time feeling and keeping a low price for tickets is a plus. The movies are hit and miss, but for a family of three we only spent 22 bucks for tickets, small popcorn and three drinks. Don't care what the movie is, thats cheap for a night out.

James Hunter

Great community events!

Diana Romanczuk

LOVE this place. Especially the Science on Tap serious. So much fun. It's older but well maintained. Full of culture and spirit.

John

Awesome retro place...very comfortable seating and reasonable admission/popcorn prices. They make absolutely the best popcorn I have experienced in my life (and it has been a long one). Upstairs lounge is very edgy and cool....place reminds me of San Francisco Mission Street Crown Theater where I was an usher in 60s back when it was in its heyday. Love this place!!!

Alan Graham

The renovation is really impressive and they run some fairly off mainstream stuff especially for Vancouver. Prices on concessions are reasonable too!

Felicia Massett

Great old time movie experience!

Matt Klawiter

Awesome little local theater. They had a radio reimagined show going on for the War of the Worlds anniversary which was a blast.

Jessica Loper

Good selection of old and new movies in a revamped theater that offers adult beverages as well as the usual movie fair. The remodel to the Kiggins was overdue and had been nothing but wonderful for down town Vancouver.

Anne S Wagner

Nicely restored art deco style theatre. New, reclining seats, good screen. Music was live that evening for silent movie. Well done.

Karen Kennedy

Wonderful old theater.

Timothy Vander Ploeg

Saw SAO there! Great venue! The seats are comfortable, the food is great and the theater is really nice. Loved it!

Michael LaFors

Great Rocky Cast

Daniel Vander Ploeg

I really enjoy The Kiggins. The seats in the auditorium are comfortable, popcorn is good, and they play a nice eclectic selection of shows.

Sophie N

Beautiful restored theater brings back good memories

Isaiah Irish

Fantastic local theatre. I try and come by every couple weeks. The staff are very friendly and obviously care about the history of the theatre and the community as a whole. Lots of unique movies and shows. Plus, the popcorn is great! P.S. Ignore Sheryl.

Arlene Rose

Watched The King and enjoyed it very much.

April Spencer

I love the renovations!!

dominic Drew

Prestigious and simplistic. Service is unbeatable, personable staff, and good frickin beer.

M Squared

Nicely restored movie theatre. Seats were comfortable and employees were pleasant. Upgraded sound was a plus. This is the Vancouver location for the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Theater also shows first run indie films and old classics.

Chris Sheaves

Really great seating and atmosphere for a little theater.

Arwen Myers

I love the Kiggins! Prices are reasonable, there's a great variety of concessions (including a number of adult beverages, if that's your style), and they choose interesting films you might not be able to find elsewhere. Can't recommend it highly enough. :)

Jim VanNatta

Historic downtown Theater, beautifully renovated. Should have everyone's support!

David Day

A fun throwback theater that plays tons of unique stuff that you won't see played in other theaters. They serve beer on the second floor and you can bring it into the theater and have a nice buzz while you watch. Tons of candy you will remember from your childhood, I got a strip of four or five Zotz (fizzy candy) for a quarter. Made me feel like a kid again. Go and have a great time.

Toini Denisova

It was a nice place to watch Metallica with San Francisco symphonic orchestra!

girlgeek

Big comfortable chairs, good selection of treats.

Renae Autrey

Enjoy this theater so much! Old school style.

Michael Owen

Great little theater, came to watch Neither Wolf Nor Dog. Friendly staff and well maintained, another shining example of why the PNW needs these smaller theaters.

Mary Jo Haslem

Great restored historical place to see a movie

Eli Lynch

Nice comfy seats. They have Good pizza and beer, too. There's bathrooms on both floors and pizza is upstairs. There's a nice lounge area upstairs, too. We enjoyed he Talk on Corvids we saw last week, a lot.

Jocelyn Smith

Had a great experience watching the rocky horror picture show!

deejay scharton

Great location in the heart of Downtown Vancouver. The Kiggins Theatre had beer and wine upstairs and great updated seating. It's a comfortable place to enjoy a beer and a movie or if you like Science, swing by on the second wednesday of the month for Science on tap. The late night showing of Rocky Horror picture show is also worth checking out. Great old theater, glad to see something like this doing well.

Jorge Terrell

Cool theater with old school flavor. It way bigger inside that what it looks like on the outside.

Todd Walhood

Love the Kiggins. Great surround sound and wonderful staff.

Blindman Blob

Love this place. Always has interesting movies that you don't get to see anywhere else.

Jennifer Holland

Such an amazing first experience. We will definitely be back.

Blake Rayburn

Rush was playing in the theater and it ROCKED Period.

Stephanie Roberts

This theater has been lovingly restored with comfortable seats and digital projection, making it a wonderful place to catch the latest independant releases.

Spring Power

This movie theater is exceptional and outstanding. You can watch some popular new movies but the amazing fact is the variety of special movies. Some good ones you might never have seen before and some you want to watch again and again. The slogan of the theatre is true: Independently minded, community focused.

Jeremy Roberts

Pretty large theater. The beer is silly expensive but that was expected.

Joanne Pinelli

Retro. Wonderful. Great seating and feel.

LA Oftedahl

Independent theater. They really care about their customers and listen to suggestions. Best popcorn in the world with some great toppings. Nutritional yeast is a great choice that I discovered via Kiggins staff.

Jeri Swatosh

Delightful art deco architecture, fabulous entertainment, and a warm, welcoming environment.

RM Joice

Very quaint little Theatre. Comfortable seats, good sound system. Great Popcorn and you can gave a beer in the Theater. Will definitely be going back.

Bruce Dodds

A delightful Art Deco theatre dating from 1936. There's a bar as well, in case you'd like to sip wine with the show. A downtown Vancouver landmark.

Janet Jones

Love the Art Deco character of this old theater. I always feel happy when I watch a movie here. Added bonus is the upstairs bar where you can get wine, beer or cider to enjoy during the show.

Kelly Kirk

Great science on tap nights. Love that they renovated and kept the building. Consessions are unfortunately just as costly as any mainstream theater but there is beer, hard cider and pizza available upstairs. You can bring your drinks in the theater.

Andy

Just a great small theater with comfy chairs, friendly staff, eclectic snacks and movies I can’t see anywhere else! I drive all the way from Boring, Oregon to see movies here!

Cam Kay

I loved this Theater. I saw Shaun of the Dead here. Awesome popcorn and a cool bar. The staff are super friendly. You should check this place out. It was built in 1936 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2012. It was named after John P. Kiggins the former mayor of Vancouver.

Jack Allman

I love the classic film series they run here! It's wonderful to see a historic theater featuring and showing vintage films!

Robin Holmes

I was extremely surprised how nice and friendly Kiggins has become. The cost of admissions was reasonable, although the concession stand had me holding up my hands thinking I was being robbed. Come on! A medium popcorn, 2 medium drinks, and 2 candy bars was over $30? I highly recommend "Linda Ronstand: the sound of my voice" Great movies.

Zak Fernandez

Good

george skrivanek

A wonderful venue with the best popcorn EVER! A great concert at the Art Deco Holiday Spectaculsr

J Edwards

Kiggins is a little gem in our community. Comfy seats, a wide variety of movies and fabulous live events. The owners obviously care about Vancouver and getting intelligent, creative and unique offerings!

Simeon Muller

Classic old theater in the heart of downtown Vancouver showing the old classics.

Mark Oh!

BEST popcorn ever! Comfortable seats. Great old time atmosphere.

Randy Robison

great piece of local history... comfy, clean, and always a nice place to go.

Sandra Hoyt

The Kiggens hosted the Vso' chamber music event. Thank you Dan for the beautifully renovated theater.

Forrest Murphy

One big screen with plenty of seating. The films they show usually don't play for long so see then while they're hot!

Daniel Enright

What an excellent venue to enjoy a quality film. This is one of the few locations that airs this type. Tonight it was Farewell. People who do not take the opportunity are really missing out. Go online and check out the upcoming presentations.

Thomas Surprenant

Such a great group of people keeping the spirit of cinema alive !!!!!! Beautiful architecture!!!

Alex

Prices are a bit steep at $10 a ticket. Friendly staff and clean theater however.

Tina Simmons

I love this place. Quaint, unique movies and shows. Great wine, cider and beer selection. Best popcorn around! Check out the VSO Chamber series. It’s beautiful!

Christopher Perry

Love this place and it's staff! Very welcoming and community oriented not sure why more people are not filling the seats...this place is a local legend full of history and memories. Support local!

Avis Horjus

Best popcorn ever!

Sheryl Klein

Went for the Halloween showing of Christine. Short line at the concessions, yet somehow still took forever getting service. Once in the theater, and after waiting almost 10 minutes past showing time, my friend had to leave to go find an employee and ASK THEM TO START THE MOVIE. I don't return to businesses where I have to remind the workers to get to work.

Pops1122

This place has definitely "moved that bus" for an extreme makeover! Before, the overall theater was sketchy and run down. I was actually glad to hear it closed down. Now though, the entire interior got a face-lift. They re painted everything & added a cool lounge upstairs to enjoy cocktails before or after the show! They installed new comfy seats with a lot of leg room but kept the rest of the old theater's architecture for a blast from the past feeling. The sound could definitely use a tune-up and the movie was too big for the screen but I still enjoyed it. A great place for a cheap family night out!

neil shargel

Beautiful old theater. Apparently new seats (very comfortable) according to my friends. Friendly staff. Online ticketing options.

Tim Lange

Always awesome.

Keith Anderson

Love going to this place every month for their Rocky Horrer Picture Show event, will continue doing so.

Vicki Thompson

Carey Helm was a fantastic magician. See him if you get the chance. You won't be disappointed

Rick Morgan

Old style theater with great theater feel. Visit the upstairs bar before the movie starts

Eliseo Romayor

Great Theatre for movie lovers. Reasonable rates. Reminds of Cinema 21 in downtown Portland, Oregon.

Corinne La Fors

Big theater with a bar upstairs but you can bring your drinks into the show you are watching. I'm there every fourth Saturday of the month for the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Susan Hall

Friendly Staff clean and inviting

Hal Harrison

Vintage doesn't get better than this. Enjoy an old classic in a theater that fully enhances the experience. Oh, but it does have one of those fancy wancy sound systems. And great popcorn!

Susan Tracy

The Noir series is awesome! <3

Rick Cross

The place is beautiful, please see all the events that are generated from this wonderful public attraction.

Rob L

Very classic. This small theatre is a historic part of Vancouver. I came here recently to got to the 'Science on Tap' event, which was a talk on Ebola. They tend to have events like this frequently

Stephen Williams

Old school theater, stadium seating (great view of screen from any seat,) vintage candy/concession options, friendly service. Movie screen is a bit smaller than other theaters, but you hardly notice after a while. Cozy fun vintage movie experience.

Daniel Valenti

Quaint retro theatre with a focus in older films, history and more!

Smith on News

Very cool old,theater I loved the comedy show

Burt Likko

I go here for "Science on Tap" lectures and it's a great venue for that. Good acoustics, good beer selection, and a nice downtown Vancouver location.

Andrew Brooks

Place is awsome!! They serve frozen charleston chews!!

Loretta Richardson-Scheid

Great independent theater with a solid variety of unique movie choices. Nice little lounge upstairs. Best popcorn

Jon Heller

One word really describes this theatre... "Grand." It is drop dead gorgeous, the views are all perfect and the acoustics are great. The staff are friendly and helpful. And the shows offer something for everyone.

Soviet SteamBot

I'm not a critic so overall it was just a fun experience.

Jeff Marso

Local neighborhood theater. A diverse program of indie films, talks, and late first runs. Beer wine and some.food available. A gem.

Deborah Geores

So fun especially if you love historical buildings. Have a bite to eat while you watch your movie!

Mindy Burkett

Remodeled theater gives you a comfortable seat at a budget price. They also offer beer and wine. Great night out. Just keep an eye on their website or subscribe to get notifications about the shows they get. If you like Anime, they are a good source of shows.

Anthony Kalnins

Popcorn costs (real butter) a lot, but it's freaking tasty! Candy is eh fair for a theater and decent selection. Didn't see a movie I wanted to see, but they had a good movie I already had seen playing.

cindy skrivanek

Quaint old theater with the best popcorn.

Justin Stanley

Love Kiggins. It's a historic get in the middle of downtown Vancouver, the only place on this side of the river where you stand a chance to catch any indie/non-mainstream films. Where else would you have the chance to drink a local beer while watching a classic film on the big screen in a historic venue?

Adriane Savelli

Awesome, went to comedy night. Great time.

kkjsmom

Small but great service and choices. Really cheap date! We had a sausage, soda and movie for 2, all for $25.

Natalie Gonzalez

Kiggins is an awesome theater that hosts many different shows. Loved attending the vintage toy show today and getting some cool things to add to our collection!

Will Kitchen

Great local venue for eclectic movies, events and music. Small upstairs bar and a real retro feel. We love coming here for any reason we can find!

Mike Kenning

This place is a Jem. An old school single screen theater with a huge historical significance. The prices are usually a little less than the big theaters and they often show independent films. They also do several community events, often with free admission. The marque bar is a quaint art deco style lounge with a few beers and always one cider. It also offers wine. Everything is kept true to the origins of the theater except the updated seats, which are far more comfortable than there predecessors.

Jeffrey Alger

Went for a special screening. It is a great historical theater, with updated comfortable seating.

Melina Oregon

Great date night!

Patrick Hogan

Go on first `Fridays' for the music in the lounge.

Rebecca Doll-Suppes

I love this place. Old theater that's been renovated but maintains it's nostalgic feel. Plenty of parking in surrounding area, but you'll have to park on street (possible parallel parking although there are diagonal spaces, too). REAL BUTTER on the popcorn and a variety of movies and shows to see. I attended the Thursday night comedy show and was pleasantly surprised at the caliber of comedians (well worth the entry fee - I've paid a lot more for a lot less laughs at other places)! Brews and Ciders on tap during comedy show, too. My spouse and kid have become regulars at their Friday Fright Nights, seeing Nosferatu, The Thing and the classic, Piranha. Nosferatu is a silent film accompanied by LIVE musicians - are you kidding me? How COOL is that? My preteen and spouse loved it. Highly recommend!

Merribeth Greenberg

We went to see Miracle on 34th Street. I appreciate Kiggins efforts in having audio Description devices to describe movies. The movie we were there to watch is just to old to have description. Pop corn was great.

Michael Sigler

Phantom of the Opera was fantastic. The live musicians from our symphony really made it worth seeing. Great show looking forward to the next event here. The theater looks awesome.

Irene Holmes

This is a great movie theater with an amazing selection of snacks and their ticket prices are affordable as well!

Bdmadam

I love the Kiggins Theater. Tonight's show was not something you would see in a mega theater and the theater is wonderful.

Hollie Olson

I grew up going to this theater. The new owners have done wonders with keeping the old and bringing in the new. It's an amazing place. It's a theater you can watch a movie and buy a beer. Just go you won't regret it. Hollie

Kelli Dougal

Visited for the first time last night to attend the “comedy on tap” show offered every second Thursday. I love that they’re bringing comedy to the Vancouver community! While not the best stand-up comedy we’ve ever seen, we did have fun and laughed quite a bit. I was a bit surprised by some of the jokes/themes because the website had listed the event as “all ages welcome” and so I expected it was going to be clean comedy...it was definitely not family-friendly, and I wouldn’t recommend it for “all ages.” We also seemed to be some of the youngest ones there, they seemed to cater to an older crowd and a lot of the jokes reflected that. The theater itself is really nice!

Jasmine Agnor

Love this local gem of a theatre!

Carey Jenkins

Had a great experience tonight! Very comfortable seating too!

The Great Holy Cow

Great old fashioned theatre showing older classics, art house types of films, worldwide cinema, etc. Great staff. Cozy lil wine and?beer lounge upstairs. New seats and digital upgrades.

Gordon Rodewald

Great experience, comfortable seats. Overall terrific!

Anne Grenier

Really nice old theater first time in it

Rosie Apodaca

Great theater space comfortable friendly staff

Jana Brinlee

Lovely old theatre. Updated and very clean premises. Seats are wonderful and I noticed accommodations for wheelchairs.

Michael Key

Nostalgia abounds in this lovely vintage movie parlor. The seats are modern but they don't clash for some reason. The projector is bright and the sound is big and dimensional. Serving beer and wine in a real glass is a nice treat. I'll be back.

M Long

Nostalgia! Great selection of films! Updated sound and digital video! Awesome food selection and beer/wine choices!

Don Mix

Out of the original twelve this is the only single screen theater left. Second run and Art House films. Take you children so they can experience films the way you and your parents did. They have the best seats in South Washington, so comfortable. They also have the best consesson stand of any theater in the area. Adult beverages up stairs for people that enjoy that, I don't. Super nice staff, thank you ladies. I only noticed two things I was not happy with, the movie was projected in the wrong aspect ratio, hint: titles were slight cut off. And they still have a bit of slap echo, the back of the theater needs some sound deadening material. Relax and enjoy the movie without the kids kicking the back of your seat. Go and support this theater.

Kevin Lloyd

Wow, I remember going to the Kiggins about 10 years ago. The sears were worn out and ragidy. Nothing matched and it was struggling to stay afloat. Decided to visit today. Wanted to revisit long ago memories. I was so pleasantly surprised, clean comfortable seating, nice concessions and a nice adult beverage bar. Will definitely revisit in the future.

John Lawler

The Kiggins owners treated the previous renters/operators rather shabbily and then ran them out before doing the restorations. Since then, the prices have gone up and many of the movies are either non-kid-friendly or unwatchable. The worst part is that they now sell beer and wine, which is a bit scary if you want to take kids there. Positives: The new seating is very comfortable and nice. We have enjoyed an occasional event there, including a screening of "It's a Wonderful Life," which (surprisingly to me) was very much better than watching it on television. Somehow, they seem to attract more people than the old operation even though the price is higher, so they must be doing something right (is it the beer/wine?).
