About Us:

The Prince Theater is a performance venue in the heart of downtown Philadelphia that hosts film and live events in two state-of-the-art theaters.

The Prince Theater is an exciting performance venue in the heart of downtown Philadelphia. Boasting the largest screen in the city, the Prince Theater is owned and operated by the Philadelphia Film Society, a 501(c)(3) member supported not-for-profit arts organization. Located at Broad and Chestnut Streets on the Avenue of the Arts, the Prince Theater hosts film and live events in two state-of-the-art theaters.

History:

Before it became the Prince Theater in 2015 or the Prince Music Theater (1999-2014), the building at 1412 Chestnut Street had been a legendary movie theater under two different names: the Karlton Theater (1921-1950) and the Midtown Theater (1950-1995).
