Explore the story of this wonderful little cinema in Broadstairs
2pm - 3.15pm
The Palace Cinema are opening for two free special events as a way to say ‘thank you’ to National Lottery players who have supported them over the years, as well as welcoming new visitors!
This event is an illustrated talk exploring the story of this wonderful little cinema since 1965, as well as the building it’s in and the building that was here before!
A chance to look around before and after.
More than £32 million is raised for good causes every week by National Lottery players, and in recent years the Palace has been lucky to receive a little of this via BFI Film Hub South East. They have put lottery funding towards film seasons, local film heritage programmes and education projects, all aimed at expanding and growing what the Palace offers and who they reach in our local communities and beyond.

To attend either of these special events, no booking is necessary.
Please just arrive on the day and show any National Lottery ticket, Instant Win Game, or scratchcard (physical or on your phone), bought at any time.
