Tucked away on Princess Row in the Kingsdown neighbourhood of Bristol, The Cube is an independent microplex cinema operating at number 4, just off the city’s inner northern fringe.

An Independent Cinema in Kingsdown
The Cube operates as a community-led, volunteer-run cinema and arts venue, offering an alternative to mainstream multiplex screenings. The Kingsdown area where it sits is a hillside neighbourhood close to Stokes Croft and the broader St Paul’s district, known for its eclectic mix of independent shops, cafes, and creative spaces. The cinema occupies a building on Princess Row, a quiet street that reflects the character of the surrounding area – residential, independent, and a little off the beaten track compared to Bristol’s busier commercial zones.
What The Cube Offers
The Cube Microplex, as it is officially known, screens a wide range of films, from independent and foreign language features to documentaries and cult classics. It also hosts events, performances, and community gatherings, going well beyond a standard cinema programme. The venue has its own website at cubecinema.com where visitors can find current listings and event information. Its coordinates place it at 51.4611 north, 2.5933 west, positioning it on the northern slope leading up from the city centre toward Kingsdown and the wider St Michael’s Hill area. For anyone looking for a cinema experience that reflects Bristol’s independent spirit rather than the mainstream, The Cube is a well-regarded option in the city.
