The Duke of York’s 100 project is devoted to the centenary of the Grade II listed Duke of York’s Picturehouse in Brighton and wider cinema-going in the city.

The Duke of York’s opened on 22nd September 1910 and is the UK’s oldest purpose-built cinema, as verified by the Cinema Theatres Association. It has continually operated as a cinema throughout its lifetime and is recognized as one of the country’s most important independent cinemas.

Over its one hundred years The Duke of York’s has gone from Edwardian Picture Palace to ‘flea-pit’ to leading independent cinema going through many stages that reflect the changing nature of cinema exhibition in this country.
