Mk2 Bastille

Mk2 Bastille, Cinema complex in Bastille district, Paris, France.

mk2 Bastille (côté Beaumarchais) is a cinema at 4 boulevard Beaumarchais in the 11th arrondissement of Paris, near place de la Bastille. It has four screening rooms seating 240, 120, 70 and 45, the largest arranged in tiers. The venue is classified art et essai and shows films in their original version.

The cinema opened in premises formerly occupied by a restaurant where the heroines of Claude Chabrol's 1960 film Les Bonnes Femmes have lunch. Known as 14-Juillet-Bastille, after the storming of the Bastille, it was the first venue taken over by Marin Karmitz when he founded the MK2 group in 1974. It took the name MK2 Bastille on 29 April 1998, along with the group's other cinemas, and became MK2 Bastille (côté Beaumarchais) in 2017 after MK2 bought the independent cinema La Bastille.

The cinema draws film lovers from across the city and regularly shows works from around the world, ranging from mainstream releases to independent productions. The space also hosts discussions with filmmakers and special events that bring together audiences interested in cinema beyond typical commercial offerings.

The two buildings are connected by an internal passage, making it easy for visitors to move between the screening rooms. The cinema offers online ticket reservations and maintains accessibility features for people with disabilities.
