Fitzrovia

Between the wealth of Marylebone, the edgy energy of Soho and the grandeur of Bloomsbury, Fitzrovia is an area with a historically bohemian edge. Wide avenues lined with tall buildings in Victorian brick criss-crossing cobbled side streets. Over time, many waves of people from all over the world have forged a resolute sense of community in this central London neighbourhood. Frequently described as an urban village with a bohemian history, previously home to the wild and decadent - poets, writers and vagabonds, heavy drinkers and concubines. Nowadays its residents live among creative agencies, fashion HQs, television production companies, art galleries and a wide selection of shops, restaurants and bars.

Built in 1848, Regent Street Cinema was the first in the country to show moving pictures. In 1896, the cinema showcased the Lumière brothers’ Cinématographe to a paying audience, and, as the curtain fell, British cinema was born. Re-opened by the University of Westminster in May 2015, reinstating one of the most historic cinemas in Britain to its former grandeur. The cinema offers exclusive premieres, repertory screenings, retrospectives, documentaries, animation and experimental cinema. You can also catch double bills, showcasing the best of home-grown British talent, world cinema and classic movies in this classic venue.
