Historic cinema located at the top of the high street in the pretty seaside town of Devonport. The old style cinema with quaint lobby and decor is a welcome change from the multiplex experience.
The Victoria Theatre was built in 1912, and is the oldest purpose built cinema still in operation in the Southern Hemisphere. The cinema was constructed in the silent movie period by American John Leon Benwell. In those days around a thousand people could enjoy a night out in the theatre.
The cinema serves a selection of sweets, desserts and a range of wine to take into the theatre.
Visitors to The Vic can enjoy the latest blockbusters, live musicians and family events, in spacious or intimate cinema settings. There is wine, beer, snacks, the best choc tops in town and fresh gelato, made by locals trained by an Italian master pastry chef. With wheelchair accessibility into our main foyer and Cinema 1.
