It is regarded as one of the oldest surviving purpose-built cinemas in the UK. In the 1960s and 70s the Electric was an epicenter of bohemian Notting Hill culture.
After 100 years the Electric is an important part of London's history and is symbolic of the evolution of Portobello Road.
Having survived world wars and numerous closures it's almost a miracle that the Electric is still a working cinema and sustains original features, an achievement definitely worth celebrating.
