The Hollywood Palms Cinema is the perfect place for your special events, fundraisers, receptions, parties, full or half day business meetings and seminars, social outings and school trips. Big screens work in a big way for every presentation!

We invite you to enjoy our unique atmosphere and watch the latest films from Hollywood at our all new, high tech movie theater. From the comfort of your seat order from our gourmet menu of sandwiches, appetizers, pizza, popcorn and munchies. Sit back and let us serve you with "to your table" food and cocktail service. Watching movies has never been better! Our comfortable reclining leather chairs with counter space and tables offer a superior setting to what any traditional banquet hall, conference room or other theater can provide; great fun in a fully functional space. Get work done or enjoy some time away from home or office with a great flick.

No More sticky floors. No more hard uncomfortable seats. No stale popcorn. No noisy kids or crying babies. No high price tickets. Just sit back and relax in class and in comfort. That's the Hollywood style!

You can rent individual auditoriums or the entire facility. We can run a large tab or let everyone order from the menu and pay individually. You may select from one of our current movies, or we can provide special films at cost depending upon availability. Package options are listed below.

If your organization is looking for a great location for a truly unique fundraiser or special event, then Hollywood is the perfect setting. Hollywood Palms Cinema has been pleased to host very successful events for Easter Seals, Lions Clubs, Rotary Club, The Chicago Blackhawks Alumni Association, The Charitabulls and many schools, churches and various not-for-profit groups. Educational and youth groups are frequent users and there is no better way to feed your gathering and see a movie. We are a one stop shop for your convenience and ease of mind. Its the perfect afternoon or evening out.

All of our facility rentals even include a complimentary return admission pass for each of your guests, valid for two people to return to our theater at a future date to enjoy a regularly scheduled matinee or evening show!

is perfect for smaller groups during regular show times. Be our customer! Smaller holiday gatherings, social groups or off-duty business outings find this option attractive because it avoids the larger financial commitment for the exclusive use of an auditorium. Just come to one of our regularly scheduled films as a group and pay individually or on one large tab. We always suggest arriving at least 40 minutes prior to any regularly scheduled show time to ensure the widest selection of seats. Tickets for a brand new title can be purchased on line or at the box office in advance or, with older titles on the day of your "get together" when the box office opens. Contact our event coordinator if you have an especially large group (50 or more) and, if your group is all present prior to the regular public seating, we may be able to pre-seat just prior to the general audience (just speak to the usher or a manager the evening of your event prior to seating). Food and beverages are ordered from the regular menu and purchases must be paid for at the end of the film by cash or credit card (we do not invoice or accept checks with this option). No outside food or beverages are permitted. An automatic gratuity will be added to all groups with six or more guests. We do not discount admissions for menu items for large groups with this option. There are no refunds for ticket purchases and seats are not reserved so be in line early!

Option B - The Burbank Plan
is for daytime child oriented field trips for schools, youth or religious groups, scout troops, organization outings, etc. This option is available before the facility opens for regular business and requires a certain minimum group size and financial commitment.

Ratings are available for any film at www.mpaa.org. The sponsoring organization is responsible for supervising the behavior of the guests and of course any damage caused by misbehavior. We recommend an on site tour and meeting with our special event coordinator prior to scheduling your function to insure the smooth operation of the event.
