Spring break is right around the corner! Bring the kids to the Ionia Theatre for a fun, family-friendly outing with our special Spring Break schedule.

Families can enjoy a Family Free Movie and Junior Theatre Day, featuring a kid-friendly film with a 10–15 minute intermission halfway through so children can stretch, move around, or take a quick bathroom break before the movie continues. It’s the perfect way to keep kids entertained during the break!

Check out the full spring break schedule and plan your visit today.
