The IPIC South Barrington in South Barrington, Illinois has closed.

Located in The Arboretum of South Barrington on Bartlett Road & Higgins Road, the theater originally opened October 17, 2008 as the Gold Class Cinemas - South Barrington. It became the iPic Theaters at The Arboretum of South Barrington after Gold Class Cinemas was acquired by iPic in 2010. It was later simplified to its current name. iPic filed for bankruptcy in 2019.

The movie theater recently posted the following message to its Facebook page:

As a result of the continued challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, we made the difficult decision to not reopen our South Barrington location.

It has been an honor to serve our guests and IPIC ACCESS Members and we are incredibly grateful for your patronage.

The last time we received any showtimes updates for the theater was November 19, 2020.

Moviegoers in the area will need to visit one of the other nearby theaters, including the AMC South Barrington 24 in South Barrington, the Classic Cinemas Cinema 12 in Carpentersville, and the Catlow Theatre in Barrington.

IPIC Theatres continues to operate theaters in eight states around the country. The only other Illinois location for the company, the IPIC Bolingbrook, also closed recently.

The last time we visited this theater was back in 2009, so the photos we have are quite dated, but you can see what it looked like back then in the Photo Gallery for the IPIC South Barrington.
