Stowe Cinema 3Plex

The Stowe Cinema 3Plex has been Stowe’s hometown movie theater since 1972, and it still has the easygoing feel of a small-town cinema. Three screens show first-run films, from the latest blockbusters to family favorites, with matinees on weekend afternoons. The concession stand covers all the movie essentials, and bar seating at the back of each theater lets grown-ups enjoy a cocktail or a local beer during the show. The cinema also hosts special screenings and private events throughout the year. It’s a dependable plan for a rainy afternoon, a quiet night after a long day on the mountain, or any time the kids need a little downtime.

The cinema is about 10 minutes from Topnotch, just outside Stowe village. Check the Stowe Cinema website for showtimes and tickets, which you can buy online ahead of time. Make it a full evening with dinner at The Roost before the show, then head back to Topnotch and debate the ending on the drive home.
