PalaCinema Locarno

Organise your event

PalaCinema Locarno offers unique venues for events. Located in the heart of Locarno and easily accessible by public transport or car, each venue has its own character and can be configured to suit specific requirements.

On the third floor are the Spazio PalaCinema, the Ala Palacinema and the Terrazza PalaCinema – three interconnecting spaces offering a 180° view of Locarno’s historic centre. The Meeting Room is also located on the same floor. On the lower floors, the Foyer Public, the three cinema halls and Piazza Remo Rossi complete the venues that can be hired. Additional services are available on request: catering, technical support, furniture and decorations and more.

Please note: During the Locarno Film Festival, none of the venues are available for hire.
