Movies and More

The Fallon Theatre is gearing up for a busy winter and early spring, featuring a slate of crowd-pleasing movies, live music events, and a brand-new film festival spotlighting local storytellers.

On Friday and Saturday nights, moviegoers can catch “F1: The Movie” (2025) at 7 p.m. The film offers a high-octane, behind-the-scenes look at Formula One racing, charting the sport's intensity and drama. Rated PG-13, the movie runs 2 hours and 35 minutes.

Live music will take center stage next weekend when The Kindred North, an acoustic duo founded in Fallon, performs Friday, Jan. 30, at 7 p.m. Raena Blais and McKenzie Warren blend folk, country, and rock, delivering heartfelt harmonies and arrangements. Admission is $12.

Rounding out January, the theatre will host its annual screening of “Operation Haylift,” telling the story of the 1948–49 Nevada rescue effort when the U.S. Air Force delivered hay to snowbound cattle ranches, a pivotal chapter in state history.

February brings the Galentine’s Show, with the Domesticated Man Band performing at 7 p.m. on Feb. 6 and 7. Admission is free. The theatre will also host its annual Valentine’s Day 5K fundraiser Saturday, Feb. 7, with registration open at 8 a.m. The cost is $25 for individuals and $40 per couple in advance.

On Feb. 12, Kat & Dave: The Acoustic Rock Experience brings classic rock favorites to the stage at 7 p.m. Tickets are $10.

Looking ahead, the Fallon Theatre will present “Heritage of the West” on March 7, 2026, a free event celebrating regional history through music, poetry, and storytelling. Organizers are inviting performers and historians to participate. Contact [email protected] or call 775-423-2055.
