Fanling Theatre, Grade III historic movie theater in North District, Hong Kong

Fanling Theatre is a two-storey, single-block cinema at 1 Luen Fat Street in Luen Wo Hui, Fanling. Its triangular pitched roof is covered with tiles, and inside it kept a sloped floor, latex-cushioned seats, wooden trim around the screen and manual seat allocation. It closed in 2010 and was rated a Grade III historic building in 2016.

Fanling Theatre opened on 11 September 1959, replacing an open-air cinema that had operated on the site since 1949. It was the first cinema in the New Territories North and the only one serving Sheung Shui, Fanling and Tai Po. It closed on 6 January 2010 and was rated a Grade III historic building in September 2016.

The theatre's name comes from Fanling, and it served Luen Wo Hui's farming and industrial workers; at the 1959 opening the New Territories deputy administrator said it would bring entertainment and rural prosperity. In its last years it switched to Category III films, and it closed quietly on 10 January 2010.

The theatre stood at 1 Luen Fat Street in Luen Wo Hui, Fanling, and closed on 6 January 2010. The two mini-auditoriums seated 361 and 360. It was demolished in 2018; in November 2020 the site was bought for HK$140 million. The building was a two-storey single-block structure with a pitched tiled roof.

The theatre's triangular tiled roof and two-storey single-block form made it a filming location: TVB's drama series Yim Chi Fun Fan shot scenes there. In September 2016 the Antiquities Advisory Board rated it a Grade III historic building, after it had already closed in 2010.
