residents and students alike. <\/p>\n<p>With a capacity of 106, it boasts a charming and nostalgic vibe with a manually opened curtain and an old-timey box office. The UPP has also hosted the likes of Oscar-winning director Sam Mendes. <\/p>\n<p>However, the cinema is now facing an uncertain future, as its landlord, the University of Oxford\u2019s Oriel College, is unwilling to extend the Grade II-listed building\u2019s lease to undergo much-needed renovations.<\/p>\n<p>Although the UPP is now a community-owned business, its long-term future depends on the Oriel College extending the lease past 2037. <\/p>\n<p>This would allow the UPP to make critical renovations and take advantage of grants that would enhance accessibility and energy efficiency. The cinema has seen a surge of 25% in its operating costs in the last four years and continues to deal with financial concerns.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-widget-related\" data-stories-id data-event=\"widget_related\">\n<div class=\"c-widget-related__title\"><b class=\"c-widget-related__title__text\" lang=\"en\">Related<\/b><\/div>\n<ul class=\"c-widget-related__list\">\n<li class=\"c-widget-related__item\">UK&#8217;s oldest working cinema, The Electric Cinema in Birmingham, closes its doors <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cThis lease was agreed recently in 2022 with a new registered society. We have no plans to amend the lease at this early stage in the tenancy\u2026 We continue to be in dialogue with the new managers about how to ensure the cinema remains open to the wider public,\u201d a spokesperson for Oriel College said, as reported by The Guardian. <\/p>\n<p>Oriel College also owns several other east Oxford properties and has plans to expand. <\/p>\n<p>This highlights the worsening \u201cstudentification\u201d trend, which shrinks independent third spaces for locals and puts a number of popular and historic spots at risk. <\/p>\n<p>Back in March, a petition and campaign to save the UPP was launched, which amassed 22,000 signatures.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>                                  Go to accessibility shortcuts<\/p>\n<div

issues.\u00a0East Oxford\u2019s Ultimate Picture Palace first opened in 1911 and has since been a beloved cultural hub for generations of residents and students alike.\u00a0With a capacity of 106, it boasts a charming and nostalgic vibe with a manually opened curtain and an old-timey box office. The UPP has also hosted the likes of Oscar-winning director Sam Mendes.\u00a0However, the cinema is now facing an uncertain future, as its landlord, the University of Oxford\u2019s Oriel College, is unwilling to extend the Grade II-listed building\u2019s lease to undergo much-needed renovations.Although the UPP is now a community-owned business, its long-term future depends on the Oriel College extending the lease past 2037.\u00a0This would allow the UPP to make critical renovations and take advantage of grants that would enhance accessibility and energy efficiency. The cinema has seen a surge of 25% in its operating costs in the last four years and continues to deal with financial concerns.\u201cThis lease was agreed recently in 2022 with a new registered society. We have no plans to amend the lease at this early stage in the tenancy\u2026 We continue to be in dialogue with the new managers about how to ensure the cinema remains open to the wider public,\u201d a spokesperson for Oriel College said, as reported by The Guardian.\u00a0Oriel College also owns several other east Oxford properties and has plans to expand.\u00a0This highlights the worsening \u201cstudentification\u201d trend, which shrinks independent third spaces for locals and puts a number of popular and historic spots at risk.Back in March, a petition and campaign to save the UPP was launched, which amassed 22,000 signatures.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;http:\/\/www.euronews.com\/culture\/2026\/05\/08\/this-historic-oxford-cinema-could-be-lost-to-film-lovers-soon-if-its-lease-is-not-renewed&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/75\/17\/65\/1200x675_cmsv2_c81ee79f-8e7a-583a-b52a-99762771739f-9751765.jpg&#8221;] Europe News EU clears Hungary\u2019s V\u00e1rhelyi in Brussels spying probe Art Giant Henry Moore sculptures take over London&#8217;s Kew Gardens Travel News Ryanair suspends the operation of its base in Thessaloniki in winter Europe News Pope in Pompeii one year after election: &#8216;So many Christians offend God&#8217; Europe News EU clears Hungary\u2019s [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-1925698","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1925698","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1925698"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1925698\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1925698"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1925698"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1925698"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
