Local Entertainment
There is so much to do in downtown Kannapolis in addition to seeing a movie at the Gem Theatre! See a list of the many restaurants you can visit either before or after a movie. We also like to share a variety of family entertainment options in the Kannapolis, NC area as well for you to enjoy when you visit.
The Gem Theatre hosts a number of events like the annual NC Music Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony and the Modern Film Festival as well as our *Summer Movie Camp where we show family-friendly movies for only $1 admission on Tuesdays through the summer.
Downtown Kannapolis is also a hub for many great community events like the Kannapolis Cruise-In and the new Kannapolis Wine Festival.
For complete information about everything that Kannapolis has to offer, visit the City of Kannapolis website.
*Please note, we will not be hosting our annual Summer Movie Camp during 2022. Due to a lack of available staff, our regular matinees for children normally hosted every Tuesday have been canceled this year.
