Tips & Advice

  • Buy tickets at the Rialto Square Theatre box office in advance or on the day; online sales are unavailable.
  • Arrive before showtime because doors open 30 minutes early and seating is first come, first served.
  • Plan to arrive promptly after doors open to improve your choice of general-admission seats, which are assigned first come, first served.
  • Allow 2 hours and 10 minutes for the film so you can plan the rest of your outing accordingly.
  • Bring money for bar service or concessions if you want refreshments; both are available for purchase at the screening.
