FilmBar adapted to pandemic pressures by moving to a new outdoor location in 2021.

In-person entertainment options are on the list of things in our everyday lives that have been severely hampered by the pandemic.

And earlier this week, it was announced that FilmBar in downtown Phoenix is permanently closing.
