The Piccadilly Cinema Centre is Perth’s “only surviving grand old Art Deco style cinema”. Originally the seating capacity was for 1,100 when the cinema opened on 10th March 1938, and it retains its style and grace today. The cinema screens new release films. This venue is part of the Regent Cinemas group.
