Phoenix 2020 Project
Following 16 months of construction work and fit out, we're excited that our new extension is now open.Our Phoenix 2020 expansion is now completed
Our exciting multi-million pound expansion project is completed, and our new extension is now open. Phoenix now boasts four screen cinemas, superb new galleries, and a stylish Café Bar, plus a fabulous roof terrace and more spaces for making and learning. It’s all part of our ambition to make inspiring film and art available to all.
Over 300 individuals and small businesses in Leicester and Leicestershire generously donated to our Phoenix 2020: Be Part of It campaign, and their names will all be displayed at the venue, be that on screen, on a seat, a door or a cinema.
We are actively seeking sponsorship from businesses and individuals who can help to support our charitable ambitions – and in doing so raise their profile and engagement with our public visitors and stakeholders.

We captured construction of our extension on video, and you can can now watch timelapse footage of it being built before your very eyes!
