Cine Gaumont

Cine Gaumont is a movie theater in Buenos Aires with three screening rooms equipped with modern projection technology while maintaining its original 1940s travertine interior finishes. The spaces blend historical architecture with contemporary equipment for film presentations.

The building was founded in 1912 as Cinema Plaza Congresso and received its current name in 1946 to honor film pioneer Leon Gaumont. The renaming reflected growing recognition of this cinema pioneer's influence on the theater.

This cinema functions as a gathering place for Argentine filmmakers and audiences who come to experience and celebrate local productions. Its operation by the National Institute of Cinema and Arts has made it a home for local talent and creative voices.

The theater is located on Avenida Rivadavia and offers regular film screenings featuring contemporary Argentine productions. Visitors should check the program schedule in advance to find their preferred films and showtimes.

In 1956 the theater underwent technical modifications to accommodate CinemaScope film format, ushering in a new era of film projection for Buenos Aires. This upgrade allowed the venue to keep pace with the latest cinema technologies of that era.
