Rainy Day Activities: Watch films in style at The Electric Birmingham

Birmingham, West Midlands

Lounge on a sofa with a drink in hand and watch the latest blockbusters at the UK's oldest working cinema.

Birmingham is a city bursting with rich culture, and The Electric Cinema is no exception. You can enjoy both the newest releases and movie classics in the Electric Cinema's luxurious art deco surroundings; whatever your tastes, there's bound to be a screening that catches your eye.

Choose from beers, wines, champagnes and even a traditional Parisian absinthe fountain at the art deco bar; the theatres are licensed so you can take your drinks in to accompany your film. You can even text the bar your order and they’ll deliver directly to your sofa seat!

You won’t find any popcorn here (outside of a popcorn-flavoured cocktail) but quirky gourmet snacks more than make up for it, with homemade local cake, handmade ice-cream, hummus, pretzels and chorizo on the menu.

Tickets to all showings at the Electric Cinema in Birmingham can be made through the website. Be sure to book in advance to secure your sofa seats of choice!
