Where was It Chapter Two filmed?

Richie Tozier (Bill Hader) performs his stand-up comedy routine; the scene gives us an intimate look at Richie's life as a successful comedian in Los Angeles. Still, it also serves as a poignant reminder of the lingering effects of his traumatic childhood in Derry.

Situated at 189 Yonge Street in Toronto, the Elgin Theatre is a landmark location showcased in various prominent productions. These include the Netflix series The Umbrella Academy and The Shape of Water, a 2017 film by Guillermo del Toro. Built in the early 20th century as Loew's Yonge Street Theatre, the Elgin Theatre is a testament to Edwardian architecture.

The Winter Garden Theatre, situated seven stories above the Elgin, is adding to its unique charm, making it the world's last remaining 'stacked' theatres. This century-old theatre, saved from demolition in 1981 by the Ontario Heritage Trust, plays a significant role in the city's vibrant arts scene.

Getting to the Elgin Theatre is relatively straightforward. It's in downtown Toronto, north of Queen Street, across from the Eaton Centre. Its central location amidst Toronto's bustling city life makes it easily accessible, contributing to its rich cultural attractions.

The movie unfolds at the Jade of the Orient restaurant, where the adult members of the Losers Club reunite after many years apart. Amidst laughter and shared memories, they note the absence of their friend Stanley (Andy Bean). The atmosphere chills when they crack open fortune cookies to reveal single-word fortunes that together deliver a haunting message: "Guess Stanley Could Not Cut It". It's a spine-tingling moment that confirms their worst fear — Pennywise (Bill Skarsgård) is back.

This pivotal scene was filmed at the Mandarin Restaurant, located at 87 Matheson Boulevard East in Mississauga, about ten miles west of Toronto. This venue is not the ominous Jade of the Orient but a popular, casual chain known for its expansive buffet featuring prime rib, sushi, and an array of Chinese dishes.

The Mandarin Restaurant has a rich history, purchased by James Chiu, George Chiu, K.C. Chang, and Diana Chiu in 1979. They transformed a small eatery with Chinese-Canadian décor into a thriving business offering à-la-carte, take-out, and delivery services. Its façade was temporarily transformed into the Jade of the Orient for the movie, complete with neon signage.

To visit this iconic location from It Chapter Two, head to Mississauga, which also houses Pearson Airport. It's a brief 10-minute car journey from the city center via McLaughlin Rd and Matheson Blvd W. Public buses are also available from the airport. Fans can relive the Losers' reunion while enjoying a meal at the Mandarin, which remains open to the public.

The Losers Club congregate at their hotel, where Mike (Isaiah Mustafa) reveals why he's called them back to Derry. The group is shocked when Beverly (Jessica Chastain) discloses that she knows about Stanley's (Andy Bean) death and confesses that she has seen visions of all their deaths, having been the only one to encounter Pennywise's (Bill Skarsgård) Deadlights.

This poignant scene occurs at the Derry Town House, which in is actually the Hotel Carlyle and Bistro located at 86 John Street. This historic building, built in 1857 as a branch of The Bank of Upper Canada, lies tucked away off Augusta Street, behind Memorial Park in Port Hope.

The Hotel Carlyle is a beautiful representation of 19th-century Italianate architecture, meticulously restored as a boutique retreat. Its features include a stylishly grand carriage house turned lounge, a covered patio for cocktails, and dining areas flanked by grand pillars. Established in 1843, much of the downtown area's architecture has been impeccably preserved since the great flood of 1980.

To visit this iconic location, head to Port Hope, where the Hotel Carlyle and Bistro can be found just off Augusta Street, behind Memorial Park. The hotel is situated in the heart of the city, just a 5-minute stroll from Port Hope Memorial Park and Cameco Capitol Arts Centre.

We see adult Richie (Bill Hader) confronted by the menacing Pennywise (Bill Skarsgård), who taunts him with knowledge of his hidden secret. In a terrifying twist, Pennywise morphs into a Paul Bunyan statue and attempts to attack Richie, who narrowly escapes.

This harrowing scene unfolds in front of the Bandshell in Port Hope's Memorial Park, just south of the Capitol Theatre. The giant Paul Bunyan statue, constructed specifically for the film and later dismantled, looms large in this sequence. Interestingly, the red brick building behind the statue is Port Hope's real Public Library, while the 'library' depicted in the movie is the Town Hall.

To access this iconic location, head to downtown Port Hope, where you'll find Memorial Park. From Mississauga, it's almost an hour and a half drive by car via ON 401 Express and ON-401 E. Public bus is also available to take from both Toronto and Mississauga.

Bill (James McAvoy) goes to the antique shop, where he spots his old bike for sale. The shop owner, portrayed by none other than the legendary Stephen King himself, is familiar with Bill's work but critiques his storytelling endings. Despite this, Bill purchases the bike and takes it for a nostalgic ride around his childhood street, passing the ominous sewer where Pennywise (Bill Skarsgård) took his brother Georgie (Jackson Robert Scott).

This memorable interaction occurs at 'Second Hand Rose', which is actually Joie de Vivre, located at 45 Walton Street in Port Hope; the store is directly opposite the alleyway with the mural. Contrary to its portrayal in the film, Joie de Vivre is an upscale shop specializing in aromatherapy and body care products.

To reach this location, visit downtown Port Hope and seek out 45 Walton Street. The spot is a brief 5-minute walk away from the notable landmarks of Port Hope's Memorial Park and the Hotel Carlyle & Restaurant. If you're coming from Toronto, it's a straightforward one-hour drive along the ON-401 E.
