THE BIRKS CINEMA
The project to restore the Birks Cinema in the Perthshire town of Aberfeldy
The Birks Cinema has been standing empty in Aberfeldy’s central square for several years – a sad corner of this beautiful Perthshire town.
Now that digital technology makes small local cinemas viable again, the Friends of the Birks Cinema aim to transform the Birks into a modern, community run cinema and café bar to entertain both residents and visitors and help put heart back into the town.

"For years, all you heard about was cinemas closing, but now it’s a different story. As someone who loves film, I’m excited by the idea that the town where I was born could soon have world class cinema right on its doorstep. The Birks Cinema has my backing, and I hope it has yours too." Alan Cumming, our Patron |
