Celebration Cinema South is Finally Open Again as of Thursday
Have you been back to a movie theater since the pandemic? I finally went to see the new
Mortal Kombat at Rivertown in Grandville but as someone who lives in Kentwood all I can think is FINALLY the one by me is opening again!! Don t get me wrong, I m a big fan of Celebration North and Studio Park, but sometimes I appreciate the convenience of having a movie theater down the road.
Celebration Cinema announced that their South location will be open again on Thursday after being closed for over a year now. According to Grand Rapids Business Journal, resuming the South location and Studio C in Okemos will complete the reopening of Celebration s 10 [indoor] theaters since the pandemic.

After 14 months, Celebration Cinema South in Kentwood will reopen its doors to moviegoers Thursday.
“We’ve missed showing movies on the big screen,” said Connie Mester, manager. “We miss popping fresh, hot popcorn. Most of all, we’ve missed the lively energy of moviegoers. This is a community gathering place, and we can’t wait to see friends and neighbors come back through the doors.”
The cinema, 1506 Eastport Drive SE, and Studio C in Okemos will complete the reopening of all 10 of Celebration Cinema’s Michigan indoor theatres since the pandemic started.
“It’s been a challenging year,” said Emily Loeks, director of community affairs. “We are thankful for a tremendous core team that has been thoughtful throughout and helped us prepare for this reboot.”
