After shutting down briefly for rebranding purposes, the Alamo Drafthouse movie theater will reopen in Katy at the end of the month under new management.
What’s happening?
The brand recently closed down four locations, including the theater in LaCenterra at Cinco Ranch, according to a statement on the company’s website. The statement said Triple Tap Ventures, which also operated three other locations in El Paso and Lubbock, will no longer operate these four locations.
“We’re grateful to the teammates and guests in El Paso, Katy and Lubbock for their support over the years and wish them all the best,” the statement said. “We hope to return to these communities in the future.”
Additionally, the website said tickets purchased through Alamo Drafthouse will be refunded via email.
Latest update
While the Alamo Drafthouse statement published on the website did not include any new management information, Flix Brewhouse released a Feb. 10 news release announcing its acquisition of the four Alamo Drafthouse locations.
The cinema brewery company was founded in Round Rock in 2011 and currently operates 15 locations spread across six states. The release from Flix Brewhouse states customers can expect the theater in LaCenterra to open Feb. 23.
“When our company decided to focus on other hospitality concepts, it was mandatory to ensure our audiences had a seamless transition to a dine-in concept that shared our core values ... we’re profoundly grateful for the loyalty of all our Alamo guests and confident they are in good hands with Flix,” Triple Tap Ventures CEO Neil Billingsley-Michaelsen said in the release.
