Texas dine-in movie theater chain Alamo Drafthouse will open its first Florida location in Orlando in the tourist corridor, the developer of a local shopping center said Wednesday.

Alamo Drafthouse, known for its new movies as well as special events such as “Spaghetti Western” nights where they serve pasta and watch cowboy flicks, says it will open at the Vineland Pointe shopping center near Disney World in 2020.

The theater will have 10 screens, full-service, dine-in theaters, 942 seats and a restaurant and bar attached. It also has a strict etiquette policy to stop movie-goers from disrupting the experience for other viewers.

Alamo Drafthouse part of a wave of dine-in theaters that have entered Orlando such as Cinepolis and AMC at Disney Springs, as well as venerated spots such as The Enzian in Maitland.

Alamo Drafthouse was one of the pioneers in the eat-in movie theater trend, starting in 1997 in Austin and since expanding to 35 locations.

For movie enthusiasts, the Orlando Alamo Drafthouse will feature one of its “Big Show” format screens and have the ability to switch between digital and 35mm for both new release and classic films.

Among the other special events are nights for movies such as “Elf,” “The Princess Bride” and “Ghostbusters.”

The Vineland Pointe shopping center is just east of Interstate 4 on Daryl Carter Parkway and north of the Orlando Vineland Premium Outlets. It has stores such as Burlington Coat Factory and Ross, but will also open a Lucky’s Market there in February.
