The Movie Tavern - Bedford in Bedford, Texas will be closing later this month.

Located just south of the Airport Freeway (Texas 121) at Central Drive, the movie theater announced that it will be closing at 8:30pm on Friday, January 31, 2025. The message on the theater's Facebook page read:

Dear Beloved Moviegoers,

It is with a heavy heart that I announce that Movie Tavern Bedford is shutting its doors at 8:30pm on January 31st. After more than 20 years of showing you the magic, thrills, and heartache of the silver screen, it’s time for us to dim our lights for the final time at The Shops on Central. We do hope that you will continue to patronize one of our other 3 locations in the DFW market (Movie Tavern Hulen, Movie Tavern West 7th, and Movie Tavern Denton).

We’ve been the backdrop to your first dates, the place you cheered on your favorite heroes, and where you found solace in a good story, not to mention being your curbside popcorn provider during Covid. From blockbuster hits to hidden gems and everything in between, we’ve shared so many unforgettable moments together. Your laughter, gasps, and applause have filled these walls, creating a sense of community that words can hardly capture.

You’ve welcomed us into your lives, and for that, we are eternally grateful. Each visit, each ticket, each bucket of popcorn—it meant more than you could know. In an ever-evolving world, we’ve tried our best to remain a place of escape, wonder, and connection.

While the doors may be closing, the memories will never fade. We hope that the movies you’ve watched here continue to live on in your hearts and minds, just as you will always be a part of our story. Thank you for every moment, every smile, and every memory. It has been an honor to share this space with you. Until we meet again, whether at another Movie Tavern or in the movies we hold dear.

With love and appreciation,
The Movie Tavern Bedford Team
Where "Movies Never Tasted So Good"

The theater was operated by Marcus Theatres Corporation, which acquired all Movie Tavern locations in 2019. It originally opened in 1985 as the General Cinema Central Park 8.
