The Regent Cinema, Blackpool – where every screening becomes an event

There's something modern multiplexes can't replicate. Built in an era when cinema was an occasion, The Regent has absorbed decades of gasps, laughter, and applause. Its atmosphere does half the job before the lights even go down. It's a natural home for classic horror and silent films — but the magic works for anything. Cult favourites, family nights, one-off events. Whatever you want to see, The Regent gives it weight. Choose your film. Bring Blackpool together. Make it a night.
