Grand, Movie theater in Norrmalm, Stockholm, Sweden
The Grand is a cinema in Norrmalm with four screens and a total seating capacity of 504 at Sveavagen 45 in central Stockholm. The venue combines modern projection equipment with historical details such as the original intarsia doors that lead to the main auditorium.
Originally a Free Church building, it was converted in September 1933 by architect Björn Hedvall into a single-screen cinema with 772 seats. This transformation made it a significant entertainment destination in central Stockholm.
The cinema attracts film lovers from across the city center with its mix of Swedish and international releases. It serves as a cultural hub where different audiences gather for shared viewing experiences.
The cinema is centrally located on Sveavagen and easy to reach by public transport. Clear signage and lighting throughout the venue help visitors navigate easily to each screen.
In February 1986, the cinema was the last place where Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme watched a film before his assassination later that night. The movie he attended was 'The Mozart Brothers', a light-hearted comedy.
