Saljoet, Movie theater in Yekaterinburg, Russia.

Saljoet is a cinema at Tolmachyova 12 in central Yekaterinburg, in the building of the former Imzhenetsky house. It opened in 1912 as the Khudozhestvenny electro-theatre and was rebuilt after a 1968 fire, taking its present form in 1979. It operated as a multiplex with eight halls and over 900 seats until February 2020, and in August 2025 reopened as the Salyut youth cluster.

The cinema traces its origin to 13 October 1912, when the fourth electro-theatre in Yekaterinburg, Khudozhestvenny, opened in a former varieté in the Imshenetsky house on Kolobovskaya Street. After the Revolution it was nationalised as a children's cinema and renamed MJoeD in 1930; it became Salyut in 1956. The old building burned down in 1968, and the present form dates from 1979. It closed on 15 February 2020, and in 2025 the building reopened as a youth cluster.

The name Saljoet ("salute") was adopted in 1956; the venue had opened in 1912 as Choedozjestvenny and was renamed MJoeD in 1930. It was long a children's cinema, and every fifth visitor was a child. It belonged to the Europa Cinemas network, the only member in the Urals, and screened a film available nowhere else in the city about once a week.

The cinema closed in February 2020 and its premises were transferred to the city Palace of Children and Youth Creativity. In January 2025 the building was handed to the Sverdlovsk Regional Entrepreneurship Support Fund for a youth cluster, which opened in August 2025. The site is at Tolmachyova Street 12, near the crossing with Lenin Avenue.

In 1998 Saljoet was the only cinema in Yekaterinburg that had bought Titanic, and it screened the film for a year and seven months, a run entered in the Guinness Book of Records; the record certificate was never obtained. Fans reportedly saw it 20 to 30 times, and the takings paid for Dolby Digital sound and a screen enlarged by half to 14 by 7 metres, long the largest in the Urals.
