Golden Village Yishun (GV Yishun), formerly Yishun 10, is a multiplex cinema located in Yishun, Singapore. Operated by Golden Village, it was the first multiplex in Singapore. GV Yishun features postmodern architecture with stripes.
Prior to the cinema's existence, Yishun in the 1980s did not have a proper town centre for activities such as going to the cinemas. Several plots of land in Yishun were put up for sale for the private sector in September 1990 by the government, which included a plot for a cinema. Golden Harvest, along with the Village Roadshow Corporation, announced in November intentions to build a multiplex in Singapore. Golden Harvest and Village Roadshow won the bid, with Golden Village established by the two companies to operate the multiple. Works already began by December, with Yishun 10 starting operations on 28 May 1992. In August 2010, the cinema underwent a three-month renovation. The renovations were completed in November and the multiplex was renamed to Golden Village Yishun.
GV Yishun has 10 cinemas, all of which have different capacities. Yishun 10 also introduced several new features for cinemas when it first opened: a computerised ticketing system and facilities for the handicapped. The multiplex was noted its exterior for being lit with bright neon colours when it opened, though was switched to a muted grey colour scheme following the renovation.
