A sad day in the world of Arthouse film, The Lighthouse cinema in Dublin’s Smithfield has closed it’s doors after a hearing in the High Court today.
A message from The Lighthouse Cinema:
Friday 15 April 2011
Light House Cinema’s best efforts to resolve the issue of rent with its landlord have failed and a proposal for mediation rejected. The landlord’s Petition for the Winding Up of Light House Cinema was heard in the High Court today and a liquidator was appointed. Light House Cinema is now closed.
On behalf of all of the former staff of the cinema, we would like to sincerely thank everybody who has supported us over the last three years. We’ve enjoyed showing some great films, in a wonderful space in Smithfield, to appreciative audiences.
