About The Roxy - Barrow In Furness
The venue site at 47-53 Cavendish Street in Barrow-in-Furness carries a storied past. Once home to the Roxy Cinema, then Odeon and Classic, the building has evolved through cinema, nightclub, and live entertainment formats. While the Roxy name is no longer in active use, this site remains a landmark for Barrow’s entertainment history and continues to attract locals and visitors seeking a night out in Barrow. The surrounding Cavendish Street area is well-served by car parks, public transit, and nearby hotels and dining options that make it a convenient hub for guests planning a night out or a multi-day visit. We’ve got you covered with practical details to help you secure your seats, plan transportation, and find comfortable, nearby places to stay and eat.
Venue notes: The building historically hosted a single-screen cinema with auditorium seating, capable of up to 1,200 guests when functioning as the Roxy Cinema. While the current use in the building has shifted over the years, the site remains a key piece of Barrow’s entertainment landscape. For guests, parking is available at Fell Street Car Park (108 Buccleuch St) with 29 spaces nearby, and multiple Barrow car parks serve the Cavendish Street area. Barrow-in-Furness railway station is the main rail access point for visitors.
