Keighley Picture House, Cinema venue in Keighley, England.
Keighley Picture House is a cinema in Keighley with two screening rooms designed for different audience sizes. The main auditorium seats around 300 viewers while the upper screen accommodates approximately 90 people.
The building opened in 1913 as a receiving house theatre for live performances. In 1954, Essoldo cinemas took over the independent establishment and converted it into a film venue.
The cinema serves the local community by screening both popular releases and independent films that appeal to different tastes. This mix reflects how the space connects people through shared viewing experiences.
The main screen is fully accessible for visitors with disabilities, ensuring everyone can reach the seating areas. Both auditoriums feature digital projection and Dolby stereo sound for a quality viewing experience.
The venue changed hands several times, including a period when Bradford Metropolitan Council owned it during the 1980s. A local cooperative later took over management, showing how the community invested in keeping the cinema running.
