About Golden Age Cinema & Bar

VENUE OVERVIEW

Golden Age Cinema & Bar is a heritage listed boutique theatrette, nestled in Surry Hills in what was once Sydney's Hollywood Quarter. Originally constructed in 1940 and utilised as the home of Paramount Pictures in Sydney until the 1970s, the theatrette’s patronage changed dramatically over the decades from local exhibitors and film executives to sharp-tongued critics, and welcomed in servicemen and women to view newsreels during World War II.

Since 2013, our David Lynch-inspired venue has been home to an award-winning independent cinema program, live music, film trivia, a seasonal food menu and carefully crafted cocktails. Hire our Cinema & Bar today to experience the elegance and allure of the Golden Age.
