Glasgow Film Theatre

The Glasgow Film Theatre (GFT to most) is part of Scotland’s cultural and architectural heritage, inhabiting the site of the Cosmo Cinema which opened its doors to the ‘discriminating’ film goer for the first time in 1939. The building itself is famous for its incredible art deco design and features, credit due to the prolific cinema architect, James McKissak. The interior is cosy yet luxurious, with two screens showing a range of international releases, rare and late night screenings, as well as hosting Q&A events with special guests and directors. The hub of the Glasgow Film Festival come Spring, the GFT prides itself on inclusivity all year round, with monthly discussion groups, film courses, workshops and a notoriously tough film quiz.
