The University Theatre was a single-screen cinema located at 100 Bloor Street West along the Mink Mile, just west of Bay Street in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The area was once home to a number of cinemas, most notably the Uptown Theatre.

For several decades, it was one of the premier movie cinemas in Toronto,[1] and was a centre for the Festival of Festivals. At the time of its closing it was the largest movie house in Canada.[2]
