We are in the early stages of an extensive restoration of the Auchterarder Picturehouse (previously known as the Regal Cinema).
Our dream & ambition is to bring this historic 1926 Grade B listed building back to its former glory and to re-create a sense of the Roaring Twenties.
You may be able to help us achieve this!
Have you, or any of your family or friends, been to the Auchterarder Picturehouse in the past? The picturehouse operated as the Regal Cinema until 1962. We would be absolutely delighted to hear stories or memories from the early years. Or maybe you have photos or memorabilia which will help us to be true to the building?
We are planning to bring cinema back to Auchterarder, however we wish for the space to be versatile and flexible to support a variety of uses. Please get in touch with us if you are involved in any local community groups associated with the Creative Arts, we would love to hear from you.
We hope the Auchterarder Picturehouse will once again become a great venue for everyone to enjoy and love.
We will keep posting more information about the restoration, and we look very much forward to hearing from you.
