Empire Records – 30th Anniversary

Damn the Man. Save the Empire!

Celebrate three decades of teenage rebellion, unforgettable music, and indie spirit at the 30th Anniversary Screening of Empire Records—the cult classic that defined a generation.

Set over the course of a single chaotic day at a beloved independent record store, Empire Records follows a group of quirky, passionate employees as they fight to save their workplace from being swallowed by the corporate giant “Music Town.” Along the way, they navigate heartbreak, identity crises, and the arrival of washed-up ’80s pop star Rex Manning, whose in-store signing event becomes the catalyst for drama, revelations, and one unforgettable day.

Starring early-career performances from Liv Tyler, Renée Zellweger, and Ethan Embry, the film is a time capsule of ’90s youth culture, packed with iconic quotes, a killer soundtrack, and a whole lot of heart.

Whether you’re a longtime fan or a first-time viewer, this is your chance to relive the magic of Empire Records on the big screen. So grab your Docs, crank up the soundtrack, and remember: “We mustn’t dwell… no, not today. We can’t. Not on Rex Manning Day.”
