Tyneside Cinema

Who we are

ABOUT US

Tyneside Cinema is one of Newcastle’s most valuable cultural institutions. Situated at the heart of the city, it is the only independent cinema of scale in the region. The building offers four screens, an award-winning learning programme, moving image art and three public bar, dining and café spaces.

We are a community, with film at the heart of everything we do. We believe in the power of film to facilitate empathy; as a way to challenge and transport us through the stories of lives we haven’t led, into places we’ve never been. In the setting of our beautiful 1930’s newsreel theatre, we hope to create a space that reflects this potential in film to engage and relate new ideas, experiences and stories.

OUR VISION AND MISSION STATEMENT

We are an independent cinema – we compete and flourish because of the difference independence allows us.

We deliver our aims and mission by being open, collaborative, engaging and outward looking.

Our mission is to inspire, educate and entertain people through the art of film.
