Centenary Restoration Project
In 2010 there was a further renovation to celebrate the cinema's centenary, led by the Phoenix Cinema Trust, and designed by HMDW Architects. This introduced a new cafe-bar with a balcony, reworked the external signage and foyer, and restored the auditorium's barrel vaulted ceiling, and Art Deco panels.
