Honour the Past - Shape the Future

Known affectionally as 'The Regent', this magnificent theatre is undoubtedly one of Wollongong's grandest buildings.

For the past 60 years the iconic Regent Theatre has been synonymous with the delivery of film, theatre and live music, showcasing both screen and live productions within its vast auditorium. This spring, an opportunity of biblical proportions will be offered to a brave few, deemed worthy, of competing for this ultimate prize. The victor will know glory and fame beyond their wildest imagination as they will not only own a piece of history - but possess the keys, to unlocking the future.

The Regent Theatre sits just off the modern office precinct of Market Street and represents an exciting opportunity for potential redevelopment into the air space above the existing building (S.T.C.A.) to provide modern offices over a number upper levels. Likewise this same approach could be applied by an astute developer, combining the Regent's traditional art deco design with modern architectural flare to create a truly unique inner city luxury apartment development* (S.T.C.A).

Designed in the 1930's by Reginald Magoffin and completed in 1957, the Regent Theatre is recognised of State Heritage Significance for both its art deco building architecture and the rare and outstanding design of its foyer and mezzanine areas by acclaimed Australian interior designer Lady Marion Hall Best.

Located on Keira Street, in the centre of the CBD, The Regent's robust geometrical composition of functionalist and art deco architecture draws you through the imposing five double glass door entrance, into the Grand Foyer, and back 80 years. The mezzanine lounge with remarkable oriental motif décor occupies a vast space underneath the Dress Circle which is accessed via two split level staircases revealing breathtaking starry views of the vast 1,200 seat auditorium.

Colliers International is proud to offer The Regent Theatre, one of the few remaining intact grand cinemas in Australia, for Sale via Expression of Interest.
