Glasgow Film Theatre

What began as a single screen cinema over 40 years ago has become Scotland’s most diverse and best publicly attended independent cinema in Scotland, with Glasgow Film Festival one of the top three film festivals in the UK. 

Glasgow Film is a national centre for film and moving image media where audiences and filmmakers experience and debate cultural practice and ideas through diverse, unique and quality programmes that transform the way people see the world, through film.

Cameo Picturehouse Edinburgh

Originally opened as the King's Cinema on 8 January 1914, The Cameo is one of the oldest cinemas in Scotland. The original screen was mirrored – the first of its kind in Scotland – and there were 673 seats in an auditorium showing silent films with orchestral accompaniment. In 1930 the cinema was fitted for sound.  It was refurbished in 1949, when it was renamed The Cameo, and it quickly established a reputation for screening art-house films and became part of the Edinburgh International Film Festival circuit. 

In the mid-1980s two extra screens were added and the original main auditorium was restored to its full Edwardian splendour. In more recent years the bar was extended and transformed. Today The Cameo enjoys a reputation as one of Edinburgh's little gems and is a warm and welcoming home for cinemagoers and cineastes.

Edinburgh Filmhouse

Based on Lothian Road on a site originally built as a church in 1831, Filmhouse first opened as a one screen cinema in 1979. Eventually expanding to become a three screen venue, Filmhouse championed some of the UK’s most diverse and radical film programming – as well as being the home for the Edinburgh International Film Festival – until the collapse of Filmhouse’s parent company, CMI, forced the cinema’s closure in 2022.

Thanks to a grassroots campaign supported by dedicated Filmhouse audiences, alongside support from the Community Ownership Fund, Creative and Screen Scotland, the Nancie Massie Charitable Trust and Edinburgh City Council, Filmhouse has been fully refurbished and reopens as a four screen cinema in 2025.
