Bring your friends
As long as you've got a SUSU membership, you'll have full access to the cinema. Want to bring along friends/family who aren't a part of the university? No problem! Every member can bring along two non-student guests at the same price, no added fees!
Private screenings for just £50
Did you know you can even hire the cinema for a private screening? For just £50, you can choose a film to be shown on the biggest screen on campus. It’s a perfect idea for societies, student groups, or just for a private movie night with friends.
Learn the art of projection
If you’ve ever wondered how movies are shown on a massive screen, now’s your chance to find out! Union Films offers a complete training course to become a projectionist. You’ll learn all about the technical side of cinema, and maybe even become the one running the show.
Booking made easy
No more waiting in long queues! You can book your tickets online through the Union Films website, and the best part is, you can grab those early bird tickets for just £4 before they sell out. Reserve your spot so you’re not scrambling last minute.
Support student-run cinema
By going to Union Films, you’re supporting a student-run service that brings affordable cinema to campus. It’s a fantastic initiative that helps bring students together, while also giving you the chance to support a cinema that’s all about giving back to the community.
What are you waiting for?
So, if you’re looking for an affordable night out, a chill movie with mates, or just something fun to do on campus, Union Films Cinema is the place to be. Grab those £4 Early Bird tickets, choose your flick, and enjoy a proper night at the movies – all without breaking the bank.
