Santikos Entertainment is proud to continue our vision of bringing the highest quality entertainment experiences to all parts of the San Antonio community by adding our 11^th location in the Westlakes area near Loop 410 and Highway 151.

"Santikos expansion is exciting for us. As we expand, so does our benefit into the community," said Santikos CEO, Tim Handren. "That's why 100% of our profits go back into the community through the San Antonio Area Foundation to support those people who could be our friends, family, and neighbors."

After the Austin-based Alamo Drafthouse abandoned its Westlakes location during its struggles with COVID-19, Santikos Entertainment committed itself to bring this wonderful location into the future and into the hands of the San Antonio cinema community with a complete, detailed renovation. Mr. Handren added, “This new location pays respect to John Santikos by innovating and bringing back to life a theater that needed our touch. Ironically, this location was originally a Santikos theater. It’s great to bring this theater back into the Santikos family where we care about our community, our employees, and our guests.”

After a successful New Braunfels theater renovation, Santikos is looking to take a fresh approach with Westlakes including a spacious new bar and an arcade featuring almost 30 games. Adding new seats, new projectors, and a much-needed deep cleaning, no detail seems too small. There is a great slate of movies on the horizon and there is a lot to look forward to for San Antonio movie fans. Be sure to follow Santikos social media for updates.
