On April 15, 1936, the Eglinton Theatre opened its doors to the public for the first time. The theatre would offer an unbelievable experience. People from all over Toronto showed up for the gala grand opening. The movie screened that evening was King Of Burlesque (starring Jack Oakie). People lined up for hours just to get a glimpse of Toronto's newest and most vibrant movie theatre.

The Eglinton now serves Toronto as an elegant banquet hall.
