Vue Cinema Signs Deal to Leave Chiswick Business Park
Company relocating to office to building by Westfield shopping centre
The company occupied space in building 10 in the office development
January 8, 2024
Vue Cinema has confirmed that it will be moving its headquarters away from Chiswick to offices next to the Westfield Shopping Centre.
The company’s UK & Ireland business, as well as its international operations, are both currently run from Building 10 in Chiswick Business Park.
The chain has over 90 cinemas in UK & Ireland as well as 212 in ten other countries.
Vue made Chiswick its home in 2003 following SBC International Cinemas’ acquisition of Warner Village Cinemas which was rebranded.
The new base will be in office space by the Westfield Shopping Centre in Shepherd’s Bush at One Ariel Way where it will occupy 14,000 sq ft on the third floor of the building with access to a roof terrace.
It will be close to Vue’s flagship 20 screen cinema in the centre as well as the one in the West 12 shopping centre on the other side of Shepherd’s Bush Green which has 12 screens.
Tim Richards, Vue’s founder, and CEO, “As we enter our third decade, and look ahead to next year and beyond, our new and exciting HQ will ensure the team is perfectly positioned to build on recent momentum and deliver the very best in big screen entertainment.’

Kate Orwin, leasing director UK at Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield, said, “We’re excited to be strengthening our longstanding relationship with Vue, which has been a valued entertainment anchor at both Westfield London and Stratford City for many years. We’re seeing demand for office space growing across both of our sites and with more people moving to White City to live, study and work, this represents a massive opportunity for companies to be part of the thriving communities in and around our destinations.”
