Broadway Cinematheque

Broadway Cinematheque is a movie theater in Yau Ma Tei with four screening rooms offering around 476 seats total, each designed with accessible spaces for people using wheelchairs or needing mobility assistance. The halls feature different sizes to accommodate various audience preferences and viewing experiences.

The theater opened in 1996 as an independent cinema designed to offer an alternative to mainstream commercial movie houses. From its beginning, it has developed into a significant venue for experimental and artistic film in Hong Kong.

The theater serves as a gathering space for people who seek out stories beyond mainstream cinema, bringing together filmgoers interested in independent and artistic visions from around the world. Visitors come here to experience perspectives and voices that reflect diverse cultures and creative approaches to filmmaking.

The venue is easily accessible by public transportation and sits in a busy neighborhood with plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby. Visitors should arrive with enough time before screenings since the halls fill up quickly and parking in the area is limited.

The building was designed by a renowned architect with a distinctive approach to modern cinema spaces that blends form and function in unexpected ways. Inside, visitors discover a bookstore dedicated to film literature and a cafe where movie enthusiasts naturally gather to discuss what they have seen.
