The Regent Cinema
The doors of the Regent Cinema originally opened in 1921, with 1092 seats inside and a retractable roof! For decades it was a popular night out until the appeal of the silver screen tarnished in the late 1960s. By 1969 it was eyes down for bingo during the week. But that all changed in 2016. After some serious refurbishment and restoration, The Regent Cinema reopened the doors once again to the cinema going public.
For example, the old seats (below) were all saved and refurbished. From drab blue to plush red. Single and double seats now available, all with a table for those drinks and snacks. Visit their website

The Regent Ghost Hunts!
Whether you’re an experienced paranormal investigator or a beginner, A Ghost Hunt at the historic Regent Cinema in Blackpool is an absolute must! Join Haunted Rooms UK to explore on 11 March, 12 August, 7 October, 16 December – from 8pm to 2am
It’s the last surviving example of an old-style cinema in Blackpool, with many of its original historic features still on show today. Stepping foot through the old cinema doors takes you right back to the roaring twenties, and perhaps face to face, with one of the many spirits that are believed to reside here.
Disembodied footsteps, whispers, shadow figures, full-bodied apparitions, and eerie laughter have all been reported in this historic building.
Regarded as one of the most haunted locations in the North West, you’ll have exclusive access to the building, with full access to areas otherwise off-limits… Do you have what it takes to join us on a real ghost hunt experience at one of the most haunted buildings in the country?
