Hippodrome Festival of Silent Cinema

At Scotland’s only silent film festival, you will enjoy a unique programme of rarely seen silent era films supported by an outstanding line-up of worldclass musicians as well as events, talks and workshops in the fully restored Hippodrome cinema.

In 2016, designated as the Year of Innovation, Architecture and Design what better place to experience this than in Scotland’s first purpose-built cinema dating back to 1912 which today offers a wonderful, modern cinema experience year-round.

Our thanks to all the funders and supporters who help to make this Festival one of Scotland’s great cultural events.

Its gala performances and red carpet glamour are a firm reminder of the important part this great era of cinema played in the life of our communities in the past and continues to play today.
