Nickelodeon (movie theater)

"Nickelodeon theatre" redirects here. For the Nickelodeon Theatre in Columbia, South Carolina, see Columbia Film Society.
Not to be confused with the television channel Nickelodeon or its film division Nickelodeon Movies.
A nickelodeon theatre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, c. 1910. Nickelodeons often used gaudy posters and ornamented facades to attract patrons, but bare walls and hard seats usually awaited within.
The Auditorium Theatre in 1910 at Toronto, Ontario, later renamed The Avenuee Theatre in 1913 and The Mary Pickford Theatre in 1915

The nickelodeon was the first type of indoor exhibition space dedicated to showing projected motion pictures in the United States and Canada. Usually set up in converted storefronts, these small, simple theaters charged five cents for admission (a "nickel", hence the name)[1] and flourished from about 1905 to 1915. American cable station Nickelodeon was named after the theater.
