Since being built in 1950 The Chabot Theater has been a staple in the Castro Valley and East Bay community, the theater has been a backbone of entertainment, art, and culture for multiple generations in its area. The Chabot Theater is an independent theater that shows first run films, classic films, plays, and hosts events as well. During the COVID-19 pandemic The Chabot Theater was forced to temporarily shut down; after opening back up the theater was faced with an all-time low, struggling to produce the amount of customer traffic as they did prior to the pandemic. Ultimately this led to many financial challenges, leaving the theater fighting to stay afloat and open. In order to stay alive The Chabot Theater has become very creative in their attempt to attract more customers and traffic. They have been more active in regards to using the space to host events, showing more classic films (some which are voted on by the community and customers), as well as inviting a number of popular food trucks to serve customers in front of the theater.
