Vlaykova Cinema, Movie theater in central Sofia, Bulgaria
Vlaykova Cinema is a movie theater in central Sofia located on Tsar Ivan Asen II Street. The main hall has 400 seats, a stage, and dressing rooms for performers.
The cinema was built in 1925 by Maria and Todor Vlaykov, who mortgaged their homes to fund the project. It was reconstructed after damage from bombing during World War II.
The cinema shows contemporary and classic films year-round while hosting concerts, lectures, and literary readings. The program reflects the wide cultural role this venue plays in the city.
The cinema is easy to reach by public transport, with several bus lines and trolleybuses stopping nearby in the city center. The venue can be contacted for questions about programming or reservations.
The building was a private venture by two entrepreneurs who risked everything to create a cultural space. This entrepreneurial passion shaped the venue's identity from its earliest days.
