This is a gorgeous 1928 theatre. Although it opened with sound films, it has a Wurlitzer theatre organ, which is played on Saturday evenings before the film screening begins. Admission prices are reasonable, and the screening schedule is interesting. This is well worth a visit, and (thankfully) seems to be well-supported by the community.
That said, this place has gone downhill a bit since I last visited. When I was here in 2023, they were no longer using the (historic and rare) Brenograph slide projector for advertising, and neither the waterfall curtain nor the side masking were in use. Screenings on actual 35mm film are unfortunately rare. The lobby staff used to wear formal attire, but now wear jeans and T-shirts. The popcorn that they had in the 1990s was the best that I have ever tasted, but the current version does not come close. Many seats were broken and covered with plastic bags, hurting the aesthetic of the place.
It is still a fantastic theatre, though, and we should all be happy that it is still in business and still screening movies on a daily basis. We have lost too many places like this over the years, and it is encouraging to see that this one is still there and still well supported by the community. If some of the maintenance and operational issues were solved, it could be even better.

This is a must see if you are interested in movies or film history. The theater is beautiful and the movie ticket price is a great value.

No where else I know can you see a Saturday night movie launched by a concert on a Hope-Jones Unit Orchestra (aka The Mighty Wurlitzer). Bob Gulledge does a wonderful job keeping this tradition alive and well on weekends.
It was great growing up in Richmond hearing that incredible instrument played by Eddie Weaver. It's even better being able to enjoy the same in such an opulent environment and have popcorn too!

Incredibly beautiful theater that has been turned into a movie theater showing classics at a very cheap price. I was happy to pay the movie ticket just to get in! A great testimony of the gilden age in Richmond

Byrd Theatre dates from the Golden Age of Hollywood. Few of these classic theatres remain in use. The seats are reasonably comfortable and the cost of tickets will not break the bank, it's good for a cheap date. One of the glories of the Byrd Theatre is the grand old Wurlitzer Organ.

Incredible old movie palace to see classics and 2nd run movies. The new seats are in, so It’s a lot more comfortable now. My theater of choice if I’m going out to a movie in RVA.

We went as part of date night to see The Greatest Showman and it couldn't have been in a more appropriate setting. Freshly popped corn, the sloping seating rolling out before the sculpted and painted walls created an atmosphere that rounded out our night perfectly. Tickets were cheap, including popcorn to share, we had change from $20 you really can't get better than that. If you love the architecture of the old cinemas you must go. If you love classic film, go, they run monthly themed films, my visit just missed the end of the gangster season and they had all the classics. If I lived in Richmond I'd be a regular, in fact I'd probably be one of the volunteers there. Yup it's run on donations by volunteers. You're doing good just by going!

The Byrd Theater was a breath of fresh air to my normal movie going experience. The tickets are cheap and its unlikely there will be a large crowd. Although it was built in 1928, it has everything you need. Comfortable enough seats, candy/popcorn, and a nice screen/sounds systems. My girlfriend and I had a great time looking throughout the theater before the show. We saw Lady Bird, how appropiate I know, and can't wait to see another movie next time we visit.

My wife and I love discovering local movie theaters when traveling. The Byrd Theater was a rare, especially historic find. At the time we saw a Saturday morning matinee of An American Tail - part of a series they run for family oriented classic movies. They had fresh local coffee available and since this was between Christmas and New Years they played holiday music on the theater’s organ while sing-a-long lyrics were projected on the big screen. It was truly a one-of-a-kind experience and I highly recommend visiting if you are in town.
For reference they did accept Moviepass, however tickets were very inexpensive since it appears they play second run films.

Built in 1928! This is a Richmond landmark that must be experienced! Myself and my wife went before Christmas and before the movie there was a sing -a-long with a Wurlitzer organ! The movie theatre is beautiful! Truly an experience!
