Empire Revival

Empire Revival Empire Revival (previously trading as Paddington Antique Centre) is over 1000 sqm of dynamic retail Our brief is to help customers celebrate their own style.

Empire Revival is inside the heritage-listed Plaza Theatre, an astonishing art deco building constructed in 1929. It is now one of only two ‘atmospheric’ theatre buildings remaining in Australia. We pride ourselves on our industry knowledge and personal service. We won't tell you what you need, we'll help you find what you like.

They’ve got more character, better stories, and absolutely no interest in discussing their age.
With 50+ merchants spread across the magnificent old Plaza Theatre, there’s plenty here ready to make your house look considerably more interesting.
This weekend, come find something with a little history. 🎭✨

Some buildings are worth looking up for. Ours is worth looking everywhere. 🎭
Inside the 1929 Plaza Theatre are all the little theatrical details that remind you what this place was built for — including one of the few remaining proscenium arches in Australia.
Now add 1,000m² of glorious space, more than 50 independent merchants, and enough vintage treasures to keep you wandering for hours…
And you’ve got something rather magical.
Come through the doors, take your time, look up, look around — and see what you discover. ✨

🔔 How many bells are there at Empire Revival?
Elaine has taken on the important job of finding out.
We follow her through the store and, after a thorough investigation, she uncovers 13 bells… and that’s not counting the counter bell.
So technically, there are 14.
Or possibly more.
Because at Empire Revival, once you start looking for something, you generally find three other things you weren’t looking for. 😂

A little bit Alice in Wonderland, a little bit enchanted forest… and a whole lot of “ooh, what’s that?” 🍄🐸✨
Our new counter display has gone properly whimsical — toadstools, drip-glaze pottery, curious critters and a few wonderfully odd little treasures.
Down the rabbit hole we go… 🐇
