About

The Stockport Plaza Super Cinema and Variety Theatre is a celebrated 1932 Art Deco landmark located in Mersey Square, Stockport. After decades of closure it has been meticulously restored to its opening‑day splendor, making it one of the finest examples of 1930s cinema architecture in the UK. The venue hosts a vibrant mix of performances – from chart‑top music concerts and pantomimes to classic film screenings, stand‑up comedy and special events – alongside a beautiful café that offers afternoon teas and fine lunches. A family‑friendly atmosphere, award‑winning acoustics and a rich history make the Plaza a must‑visit destination for theatre lovers, history buffs and casual visitors alike.
