Cameo Picturehouse

The Cameo is one of the oldest surviving cinemas in Scotland, and probably the oldest with its original interior decoration intact, making it a unique and very welcoming place to see a film.

Opening as the King's Cinema in 1914  (named after the nearby King's Theatre) as a 673-seater, the auditorium sloped gently down towards a mirrored screen which was the first of its kind in Scotland.

Taking over an adjacent shop unit allowed a Milk Bar to be added and in 1963 it obtained the first cinema drinks licence in Edinburgh.  Still today, the bar is a key part of the Cameo experience.
