SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — Company officials confirmed Monday the Campbell 16 Cine will close this summer.

According to a statement from Wehrenberg Theatres spokesperson Kelly Hoskins, Springfield’s largest theater will close July 31. Employees were reportedly given the news over the weekend.

Hoskins cites dwindling attendance for the closing. The theater has been in south Springfield for 20 years.

Hoskins’ statement;

“Wehrenberg Theatres announced today the Campbell 16 Cine will close its doors at the end-of-business Sunday, July 31st. A decline in attendance has made it impossible to justify keeping the doors open. We are proud to have served Springfield, MO for 20 years, and are grateful for our many loyal guests who selected Campbell 16 Cine as their preferred theatre. We will truly miss them, and our media partners, vendors and other friends we have worked with over the past two decades. Until the closing, business will remain as usual and we will honor all coupons, gift cards, movie passes, etc.”
