FP Cinemas LLC and Bruce Strumpf Inc. recently announced plans for Flagship Premium Cinemas to take over the former “Movies at Wellington” theater, located at 13881 Wellington Trace in the Wellington Marketplace plaza.
The theater will undergo a complete transformation with plans to re-open in early spring 2026 as a state-of-the-art entertainment destination, bringing Flagship’s signature upgrades and customer-first philosophy back to the Sunshine State.
The fully renovated theater will feature luxury power recliners, upgraded sound and projection systems, along with self-serve refillable popcorn and fountain drinks, all designed to enhance the moviegoing experience.
The Wellington location will also debut Flagship Cinemas’ newest approach to affordable luxury: the “Cinema Redefined” model to keep pricing affordable so everyone in the community can enjoy a trip to the movies.
“This isn’t just a renovation — it’s a reinvention of what a movie theater should feel like: modern, stylish and effortlessly comfortable,” said Paul Wenger, president of Flagship Premium Cinemas. “We are excited to bring the community a space where movie lovers can relax in comfort and enjoy an elevated experience without breaking the bank.”
Jill Strumpf, president of Bruce Strumpf Inc., property manager at the Wellington Marketplace, said that Flagship Premium Cinemas aligns perfectly with the company’s commitment to managing properties that serve and enrich the community.
“We’re thrilled to help bring a new source of family-friendly entertainment to the Wellington area,” she said. “The addition of Flagship Premium Cinemas at our center will complement the other shops and be a large community addition to the Village of Wellington. We wish to thank the Village of Wellington for helping us make this happen.”
Based in Baltimore, Flagship Premium Cinemas currently operates theaters throughout Maine, New York, Maryland and Pennsylvania. Learn more at www.flagshipcinemas.com.
