The Skyway Six opened June 26, 1981 in Toronto’s suburban Rexdale area. It is a beautiful, free-standing complex situated on the former site of the North West Drive-In Theatre. The theatre is managed by Bob Rea and has a total seating capacity of 1,480 with 215 seats in the smallest cinema and 300 in the largest.
The Skyway Cinema is located within the Skyway Business Park on Attwell Drive in Rexdale. The Business Park, located close to the Toronto International Airport, is a joint development of Famous Players, Rogers Cable and Cadillac Fairview Development Corporation. Also located within the Park are Theatre Confections Limited,
General Sound and our own Print Shop and Warehouse.
Each cinema in this ultra modern complex has crushed-velvet seats in complimentary colour coordination with the rugs and walls. Matching contour curtains rise to expose each screen.
The Skyway draws patrons from a large, heavily populated area between our Square One Cinemas in Mississauga and the Westwood Theatre in Etobicoke. With two private parking lots which have filled to capacity several times during the summer, manager Bob Rea is excited about the obvious advantages of these delightful cinemas.
