Our Story

Since 1923

Constructed in 1924, the Coliseum Theatre stands as the largest theater edifice in North Mississippi. Originally established as a dual-purpose venue for vaudeville performances and motion pictures, it transitioned exclusively to a cinema throughout the mid-1970s. Subsequently, the city of Corinth undertook a restoration project to return the Coliseum to its initial grandeur.

Adorned with an intricate interior featuring plaster molding, wall motifs, and accented marble wainscoting, the auditorium boasts a sizable stained glass fixture that casts a warm incandescent glow.

Exhibiting Colonial Revival architecture, the exterior showcases a meticulously restored marquee and a vertical sign. Recognizing its historical significance, the Coliseum Theatre earned a spot on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
