Arlington Theater, Santa Barbara, CA, USA

The historic Arlington Theatre is the largest cinema and main performing arts venue in Santa Barbara, California, US. Built 1931 and designed in the Mission Revival style reminiscent of a colonial Spanish town, its atmospheric interior contains faux-Spanish villas and a ceiling filled with twinkling stars. Restored in the mid-1970s with seating for over 2,000 guests on the main floor and balcony, the Arlington Theatre today is a legendary, historic landmark that - in addition to regular film screenings - hosts numerous events related to the annual Santa Barbara International Film Festival (SBIFF). Moreover, the theatre since 1986 is also home to a 4-manual, 27-rank Robert-Morton organ, one of only five “Wonder Morton” theatre organs to have been built.
