Following yesterday’s announcement of our Young Start funding award, we are thrilled to share that we are expanding the Broadway Youth Film Society project to additional schools in Ayrshire. Now open to all pupils of Ayr Academy with an interest in film and media, the Broadway will now bring the same exciting opportunities to the young people of Ayr as well as Prestwick, with further expansion on the horizon.

We are delighted to announce the funding, awarded for our ongoing engagement with young people, including the appointment of a full-time Young Start Co-ordinator, and the expansion of the Broadway Youth Film Society.

We're absolutely thrilled to announce Space Scores! A hi-fi listening session of sci-fi and space opera on the Broadway's epic cinema sound system. Hear specially selected musical excerpts from space-themed blockbusters including Interstellar, E.T. The Extra Terrestrial, Project Hail Mary, and plenty of Star Wars in the majesty of the Broadway's original 1930s auditorium.

We're delighted to announce the full schedule for the Pop-up Museum open weekends has now been announced for the remainder of 2026! You can now book from April to December to plan your trip to the Broadway in advance, starting with this weekend. We are open on Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th, with tickets available to book in advance, or pay at the ticket booth on arrival.

The Broadway is now on Letterboxd! Our doors won’t open for a little while yet, but there’s no better place to begin building our audience and our identity than on Letterboxd. What is Letterboxd? Letterboxd is a global social network for grass-roots film discussion and discovery, where users can create a free-account to track, rate, record and share opinion about film. Why Letterboxd? Letterboxd is where film will live for us before we open!

The Broadway will feature on the BBC series The Repair Shop on the Road on Monday 16th February at 20:00 on BBC Scotland

We have been awarded £15,000 to continue the Broadway's architectural development with our chosen architects at Burrell Foley Fischer, and commission a professional measured survey of the building in a major step towards future restoration!

We would like to express our warmest thanks to Elaine Harrigan, headteacher at Prestwick Academy, and send our very best wishes for retirement! Elaine has been presented with a Lifetime Membership award for her exceptional services to the Broadway!

To celebrate the Broadway's 90th in style and launch our project into the future, we were delighted to reveal our new branding, with our camel taking its rightful place at the forefront of our image! The brand has been developed in-house by professional graphic designers and executive advisors to the project, Katie and Liam Young, with our refreshed sonic brand composed by our very own Calum Upton.

With the Broadway's stage revealed once more, the next major step duly arrived, as Ayrshire's new largest cinema screen was raised for the first time. The Broadway's first new screen since 1956 brings some Ayrshire history with it too as the original cinema screen of the fondly remembered Magnum Leisure Centre in Irvine!

The courts have been squashed. It's official. The Broadway's auditorium has been revealed once more, for the first time in almost 50 years. We now have the largest cinema auditorium in Scotland under community ownership in Prestwick. We're still pinching ourselves.
