Marine ParadeWhat it says on the tin!
The Duke of Yorks Picturehouse is not only a big part of Brighton's cinematic history, but its also the oldest operating cinema in Britain and, since 1981, one of the country's flagship arthouse venues. '
The cinema opened in September 1910 on the site of the Amber Ale Brewery, and the building remains largely unaltered, despite the addition of a giant pair of Can Can dancers legs protruding from the roof!
It shows a combination of cult, classic, foreign language, independent, British and Hollywood films, alongside comedy, music and special events: Provide something for everyone, from Silver Screen for senior citizens, to Kids Club for children, through Big Scream for parents with babies.
A Lot of emphasis on service, which is why they've won Best Customer Service at the Brighton & Hove Business Awards twice in a row.
