Where movies began – and magic still lives.
Treat a film lover to the ultimate cinema experience at the birthplace of British film. Regent Street Cinema isn’t just any picture house — this is where the Lumière Brothers first wowed the public back in 1896, kickstarting the movie industry in true vintage style.
Restored to its stunning Art Deco glory, the cinema offers more than just movies — it’s a living time capsule. Think plush velvet seats, gold coat hooks, and a glittering elliptical ceiling that gives your Netflix account serious stage fright.
The programme is a love letter to cinema itself: from the biggest blockbusters to the quirkiest indie flicks and old-school classics — sometimes even shown on their restored 35mm projector. And yes, you might even catch a rare silent film with live accompaniment from the working Compton cinema organ (try finding that at your local multiplex).
This experience includes two film tickets, drinks of your choice (wine, beer or soft), and gourmet popcorn from Maize and Grace — all served in a setting where history hums through every reel.
It’s a gift for romantics, history buffs, cinephiles and anyone who believes that film is best watched somewhere fabulous.
