Palladium Cinema

Located in Prestatyn, North Wales. The Palladium Cinema was designed by Liverpool based cinema architect A.E. Shennan. It was opened in early-1921, operated by Prestatyn Picturedrome Co. Ltd. for almost all its years of operation. The proscenium was 35 feet wide, and there was a small stage. The building also contained a cafe/restaurant and a dance hall.

By 1958 it was operated by Holyhead Hippodrome Ltd. and the Palladium Cinema was closed in 1968, and was converted into a bingo club. This closed in 1978, and the building was put up ‘For Sale’. It was demolished and a branch of Boots chemists was built on the site in the 1980’s and by 2015 it was an Iceland supermarket. A Small section of the original building survives on the corner on the right hand side, in use as a bank.
