Windsor Cinema, Art Deco movie theater in Nedlands, Australia
Windsor Cinema is a movie theater in Nedlands with two screening rooms of different sizes serving various audience needs. The larger auditorium accommodates approximately 500 viewers while the smaller theater holds roughly 210 seats, with both equipped with digital projection and air conditioning.
The building was designed by William T. Leighton in 1937 and originally featured a movable projector system for indoor and outdoor screenings. This innovation allowed the venue to adapt to different viewing configurations in its early years.
The venue operates as an art house theater showing subtitled and independent films for audiences seeking alternatives to mainstream releases. It has become a gathering place for film enthusiasts in Perth.
The theater sits along Stirling Highway in a convenient location with parking availability for visitors arriving by car. It is well-maintained with modern amenities to ensure comfortable viewing for all guests.
The building displays distinctive architectural features including steel balustrading inspired by ocean liner design from the 1930s. These Nautical Moderne elements remain an uncommon example of this design style in Perth today.
