Offering the same to-your-seat service with a full bar and food menu including appetizers, entrees, desserts, beer, wine and cocktails made famous at our highly successful sister operation in Woodridge - Hollywood Blvd. Cinema, the Hollywood Palms Cinema is coming to Naperville with 7 uniquely themed auditoriums, a majestic lobby atrium featuring hundreds of live palms and a 2 story cascading waterfall. Known for its highly stylized facilities, the new location includes auditoriums ranging from the deep blue sea replete with fathoms of full size fish (beware of sharks, 3 different species with lots of teeth) to an overgrown Mayan jungle, from sparkling full-sized ancient Egypt (bring your mummy, we found the ark) and Chinese Palaces (starting off with 6 tons of terra cotta warriors) to the gloomy castle of the Wicked Witch of the West (watch your hats, the flying monkeys have the right of way). Both the Woodridge and Naperville facilities programming includes our standard fare of first run theatrical releases along with regularly scheduled film festivals, classic tributes, previews and celebrity guests. Regular adult admission is still only $8, the best value in movie going today. The only cinemas in Chicago with Reel Class, the photo ops are unbelievable.

All are welcome to visit the facility before it opens for business from 5-8pm Sunday September 13th . Enjoy guided tours & free popcorn during this "sneak preview" event open to the general public and press.

The Palms will debut with a special event featuring some of the most popular films of Oscar Winner Richard Dreyfuss who will be hosting these screenings with Q&A sessions with the audience and signing autographs before each presentation. Jaws at 8pm & What About Bob at 10pm on Friday, September 18th and Close Encounters of the Third Kind at 8pm & Down and Out in Beverly Hills at 10pm on Saturday, September 19th.
