Fox Theater

Check out the stunning facade and marquee of the Fox Theater located in downtown La Junta. Built in 1912 as a playhouse, it was purchased in 1939 by the Fox Theater chain and converted to a movie theater with 800 seats. Twinned in the 1970s or 80s, the theater closed in the mid 2000s desperately needing repair. Reopened after extensive renovations in March 2008, the private owners have restored vibrancy to this historic theater, assisted by community volunteers. The interior now hosts two movie screens with showings nightly.
