BEST REASON TO GO TO LAKELAND #2

Old Polk Theatre

First of all, Elvis left this building. On Aug. 6, 1956, the King performed at the historic Polk Theatre. Besides that, it’s a historic landmark, a charming ’20s-built Mediterranean movie palace that screens limited-release movies and imports, often ones that don’t screen elsewhere in Tampa Bay. 139 S. Florida Ave., Lakeland, 863-682.7553, polktheatre.org.
