Empire Haymarket, Grade II listed movie theater in St James's, London.
The Empire Haymarket contains three screening rooms within its architectural structure, featuring both modern cinema technology and traditional design elements from 1927.
Originally named Carlton Theatre, the venue opened in 1927 with the musical play Lady Luck before transitioning to film screenings in 1928 with Wings.
The cinema presents a mix of commercial films and independent productions, hosting numerous film premieres and special events throughout its operating history.
Located near Piccadilly Circus station at 63-65 Haymarket, the cinema maintains regular screenings and provides advanced booking options for current releases.
The Crown Estate's 2023 redevelopment plans shifted from demolition to refurbishment after considering the building's Grade II listed status and architectural merit.
