During the 1930’s-60’s there were 4 cinemas on Jersey: The Odeon, New Era, Forum and Wests. However, as the years went on and the ‘Golden Age’ of cinema passed, the number of cinemas declined, only one existing in our modern day; Cineworld which contains 10 screens.

The number of cinema’s decreased due to the invention of televisions as audiences could now be entertained from the comfort of their own home rather which lowered the need and demand for cinemas.
