The Encore Upper Canada Place Cinemas opened to the public on September 11, 1980 as the Cineplex 6 Cinemas. At the time, it was the third in the small Cineplex circuit owned by Garth Drabinsky and Nat Taylor. The cinemas operated continuously until October of 1998, when Cineplex-Odeon Corporation closed the doors. Encore took possession shortly thereafter and spent months renovating and updating the cinemas. It reopened in the summer of 1999 as the Encore Upper Canada Place Cinemas.

This is the only remaining "original" Cineplex cinema and, notwithstanding the fate of it's "siblings", is doing a thriving business showing mainly commercial move-over/second run films for $4.25 a seat. The theatre mainly caters to young children, families and older folks - it also screens some alternative fare.

Encore operates standard 35mm equipment and has stereo sound in three of the six cinemas. Cinema one is also equipped for video playback.
