Santikos Entertainment<\/a> says forthcoming Far West and North San Antonio complexes will showcase state-of-the-art technology, serving as a blueprint for future regional growth.<\/p>\nThe San Antonio-based company, known for its unique mix of movies, dining, and attractions, is investing more than $60 million into the two new projects. Currently, the chain operates eight theaters in the city limits and a pair of suburban outposts in Cibolo and New Braunfels.<\/p>\n
According to a news release, the Trinity Oaks location on US Hwy 281 will boast 10 to 12 premium screens, immersive gaming areas, multiple bowling lanes, and a full-service sports bar with stadium seating, a first for the Santikos brand. It will anchor a quickly rising development with retail pads and an apartment complex, creating a walkable hub for day-to-day life.<\/p>\n
The entertainment complex is expected to open in late 2027, but retail pads and other products will be delivered as early as next year. The Santikos location will add a much-needed entertainment option in the rapidly growing area. The closest theater, an Alamo Drafthouse, is four miles away.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis project marks a significant step in our growth strategy,\u201d said Blake Hastings, CEO of Santikos Entertainment, in a release. \u201cThe community has grown into the vision [late founder] John Santikos had for this property, and we are excited to bring a world-class entertainment destination to the area.\u201d<\/p>\n
Santikos will build another entertainment complex on roughly 20 acres near Potranco Road and Highway 211. The site will feature luxury auditoriums, premium large-format screens, bowling lanes, an arcade, and fancier food and beverage options. Like Trinity Oaks, this location will also be surrounded by retail pads.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are creating destinations that bring people together,\u201d Hastings continues. \u201cThis is more than just movies; it is an entertainment experience that will be unmatched.\u201d<\/p>\n
Construction timelines for both projects are still being finalized, with more details expected in the coming months. Santikos leaders say the new builds will set the standard for future builds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
