The Cinema and Theatre Historical Society Inc. is compiling a database of all past & present cinema and theatre venues in Australia and New Zealand.

The following Australian states are available for you to search in PDF file format -

 Victorian Venues Database

Queensland Venues Database (as listed 1952)

South Australian Venues Database (as listed 1952)

Please note: The Qld & SA databases are very basic at this time - more details will be added as they become available.

SEARCHING: The listing is alphabetical by location, you can either scroll through to find what you are after,        or use the search built into your PDF viewer.

         The listing shows the Location, Name (generally the original name), Years in Operation and the Current Status (if known).  Where applicable, Alternative Names for the venue are shown on a second line.

Please remember this listing will always be a "Work in Progress" and we seek your assistance with updating and adding to the data.  If you live in one of the locations listed, how about checking out your local cinema/theatre venues past and present and help update the details.
