Update July 25: To celebrate its tenth birthday, Lido Cinemas is offering $5 tickets (yes, really!) to all movie sessions from August 7-13. Along with a birthday retrospective, you'll also be able to catch ten special screenings of iconic films from the past ten years, including 'Mad Max: Fury Road' (2015), 'Call Me By Your Name' (2017), 'Aftersun' (2022) and 'Challengers' (2024). Find out more here.

Previously a dead building in middle of the busy Glenferrie Road strip in Hawthorn, Lido Cinemas has been revived into a vibrant, eight-screen cineplex that is now showing a mix of commercial and arthouse releases from all over the world.

Much of the historic interior has been left intact, but the interior has been given a modern touch with swathes of bold colours. Deep red walls, purple carpeting and block coloured decor interplay with the cinema's original fixtures.

Make date night complete with a visit to the Lido Jazz Room, a bar which pays homage to Manhattan jazz bars of the 80s and which hosts weekly live jazz performances. In the summer months, Lido also plays host to a rooftop cinema with a separate bar.

Pass the popcorn! These are the ten best cinemas in Melbourne.
