Blake Wallis at WINK News reported that Paragon Theaters will take over the North Naples cinema after Alamo Drafthouse closes there on September 9, converting a prospective deal into a confirmed change of operator.
Alamo's September 8 announcement now says the Mercato building will continue operating as a movie theater under Paragon. That confirms the successor operator, which was still described as prospective in Money & World's September 7 brief.
That uncertainty is over.
Alamo says it will try to connect interested employees with comparable opportunities at Paragon. Orders for showings after September 9 are being canceled and refunded. Naples Season Pass subscriptions will be canceled with prorated refunds for the remaining billing cycle.
Neither Alamo's announcement nor Paragon's public press page gives a reopening date. Details about the next theater's tickets, memberships and amenities remain unannounced.
