Maya Cinemas was chartered in 2000 with a mission to develop, build, own and operate modern, first-run, megaplex movie theaters in underserved, family-oriented, Latino-dominant communities.
Founder, Moctesuma Esparza combines his lifelong love of film, his vast experience as a film producer and pioneer and entertainment business developer in his pursuit of creating cornerstone movie theaters in communities lacking first-run film entertainment options.
In 2005 Moctesuma's vision was realized with the launch of the first Maya Cinema in Salinas, CA. Today, this vision has expanded to Bakersfield, Pittsburg, Fresno and Delano, CA.
In January 2019, Maya Cinemas North Las Vegas opened its doors bringing state-of-the-art moviegoing to an area of Las Vegas seeing rapid growth of new business. Maya has its sights set on exciting new projects and continuing expansion.
Maya Cinemas offers first-run Hollywood movies in high-end theaters focused on the quality of design, state-of-the-art film presentation technology, and providing first-rate entertainment with superior customer service.
