The
Odeon Leicester Square is a
cinema which occupies the centre of the eastern side of
Leicester Square in
London, dominating the square with its huge black polished
granite facade and high tower displaying its name. Blue
neon outlines the exterior of the building at night. It was built to be the flagship of
Oscar Deutsch's Odeon Cinema Circuit and still holds that position today. It hosts numerous European and world film premieres including the annual
Royal Film Performance.
