The Phoenix Cinema is an independent cinema owned and run by a charitable trust. Quite possibly the oldest surviving purpose-built cinema in London, the Phoenix is renowned for its varied film and repertory programme, with many special and community events. This historic building with Edwardian and art deco features was built in 1910 and is now Grade II listed. Having recently benefited from Heritage Lottery Funding, the Phoenix has been restored and refitted to celebrate its centenary, offering an experience to savour.
