Phoenix is Leicester's independent cinema and art centre, a charitable organisation located in the heart of Leicester's Cultural Quarter.Phoenix provides a popular programme of world cinema, digital art exhibitions, short courses and community events. Our Café Bar is a vibrant hub for many who live and work in the city.In 2017, we announced an ambitious £7 million development plan called Phoenix 2020 which will see us double the number of our cinema screens from two to four, create a new art gallery, a bigger Café Bar and add more education facilities by 2022. Building work is now underway, and is set to be complete by early 2023.Since moving to Leicester's Cultural Quarter seven years ago, Phoenix has seen audience numbers double to around 200,000 visits a year. We expect Phoenix 2020 to grow numbers further – increasing cinema sales by 32,000 annually and doubling the number of arts attenders to 111,000.The development will also generate valuable additional income to further improve our financial resilience to deliver upon our charitable aims for the future.Phoenix 2020 has the support of the charity's major stakeholders including Leicester City Council, Arts Council England (ACE), De Montfort University (DMU), the British Film Institute (BFI), and the Leicester and Leicestershire Economic Partnership (LLEP).Discussions are under way with local businesses who are keen to contribute to the development through sponsorship. We would welcome opportunities to talk to other organisations or individuals who may be interested in supporting our growth.Find out more about Phoenix 2020 at phoenix.org.uk/phoenix2020
