Local indie cinema The Projector is going back to its roots. The Projector will officially reopen at Golden Mile Tower this August, marking a homecoming for the beloved picture palace after the building’s en bloc process ended without a sale. The Projector made the decision earlier this year to scale back on daily screenings in April 2025 due to the ongoing en bloc discussions.
This return comes in the year of The Projector's 10th anniversary, and with it, a renewed focus on bold, diverse film programming and the vibrant community spirit that first made it a darling of the film scene.
What is The Projector?
The Projector is Singapore’s go-to indie cinema, celebrated for its offbeat curation of arthouse, indie, cult classics and foreign-language films rarely screened in mainstream theatres. It also regularly hosts themed events, comedy shows, live music performances and more.
It first opened in 2014 on the top floor of Golden Mile Tower, transforming a forgotten corner of a Brutalist building into a creative oasis with two cinema halls. A decade on, The Projector now screens over 250 films a year, with more than half comprising indie titles, auteur retrospectives and international cultural festivals.
When will The Projector open at Golden Mile?
Screenings resume in August 2025, so mark your calendars and get ready for late-night cult classics, indie premieres and curated film events.
