SilverCity and StarCité

Cineplex currently runs 12 SilverCity cinemas outside of Quebec, plus two StarCité locations in the Gatineau and Montreal cities of Quebec. The first SilverCity was opened by Famous Players on November 7, 1997 in St. Catharines, and the first StarCité opened in December 1999 in Gatineau. Both brands combined peaked at 29 locations as of spring 2001. Cineplex acquired these in 2005, but divested five SilverCity and two StarCité in 2006 to fulfill regulatory requirements, only to later reacquire two previously divested locations: Empress Walk and Gatineau. Cineplex also opened three new SilverCity locations, the last being CrossIron Mills on June 30, 2010.
