Cinema Comèdia, Movie theater in Dreta de l'Eixample, Barcelona, Spain
Cinema Comèdia occupies five screens within the former Palau Marcet building in central Barcelona. The main theater seats approximately 839 viewers, while four additional screens each accommodate around 153 people.
The building began as a residence in 1887, transformed into a theater in 1941, and converted to a cinema in 1960. This gradual change reflects Barcelona's evolution throughout the 20th century.
The cinema screens films in various languages, offering Spanish and Catalan versions as well as original releases with subtitles for mixed audiences. This language variety creates a gathering place where viewers can enjoy cinema regardless of their native language.
The cinema sits on Passeig De Gràcia 13, one of Barcelona's major streets with excellent public transport connections. Tickets are available online and at the box office for screenings held throughout the week.
The cinema expanded in 1995 from a single screen to a five-screen complex while preserving the historic exterior of the original building. This combination lets visitors see the classical Belle-Époque facade while enjoying contemporary screening technology inside.
