Summary
Nottingham’s leading independent cinema and media centre on Broad Street, with screens, production spaces, a bar-cafe and roof terrace — the hub of Nottingham’s film culture, confirmed in Reddit threads as one of several city film venues.
About this location
Broadway Cinema stands on Broad Street in the Lace Market area of central Nottingham, operating as an independent arts cinema and media centre. The building was purpose-designed for Broadway in the early 1990s and includes three screens — the main screen holding around 300 seats, with two smaller screens — alongside a bar-restaurant, roof terrace, and production support spaces. The cinema programmes repertoire, foreign language, and independent films alongside mainstream programming. It also functions as a venue for live events, premieres, and film culture talks. Reddit threads about Nottingham’s film clubs and cinemas document Broadway as the city’s principal independent film venue. For location use, the screens provide an independent cinema interior, and the bar-restaurant spaces have a contemporary arts venue character. The Lace Market surrounding area, with its Victorian warehouse conversions, provides additional urban context. Filming and event hire enquiries are handled directly by Broadway.
