A NEW independent micro-cinema and lobby bar in the heart of Bradford’s Independent Quarter has been granted planning permission in a boost to the city’s status as a Unesco City of Film.
Working Title Cinema, at the junction of North Parade, Manor Row and Hamm Strasse, will be a modern 40-seat picture house, screening a range of classic, modern and independent movies.
David Wilson, director of Bradford Unesco City of Film, said: “We are delighted that the micro-cinema has now been given planning permission. It will make a great addition to the growing Independent Quarter in Bradford and to the film offer for people across the Yorkshire region. We look forward to supporting the project.”
Bradford-based businessman Roy Davison, who is leading the project team, said: “It’s great news that the planning approval has been granted as we are conscious that the International Film Summit will be a massive event for Bradford and we are very keen to be involved.
“We want everyone in Bradford to feel engaged with the great things going on in our city right now.”
