Purpose built in 1913 as a moving picture house, the State has evolved through the silent black and white era, and has witnessed the introduction of sound and colour.

Relax in the fully licensed cafe bar and choose from a great selection of fine Tasmanian wines, beers or non-alcoholic beverages. Enjoy one of our legendary hot chocolates or coffee with a decadent slice of cake, bring a bag of treats into the film with you!

The State Cinema is only a 10 minute walk from Rydges Hobart, so make sure to check it out!
