Hippodrome Cinema, Bo'ness, Historic cinema in Bo'ness, Scotland

The Hippodrome Cinema features a circular auditorium with a wrap-around gallery, a proscenium arch, and a small stage for performances.

Matthew Steele designed this cinema for Louis Dickson, which opened its doors in 1912 and operated continuously until its transformation into a bingo hall in 1975.

The building represents the early development of cinema architecture in Scotland, demonstrating the transition from traveling shows to permanent entertainment venues.

Visitors can purchase tickets at the box office or through the official website for regular film screenings, including contemporary releases and classic movies.

The restoration project in 2006 preserved original elements such as cast iron radiators and art deco signs, maintaining the cinema's historical authenticity.
