Baby Friendly Screenings
Our Baby Friendly screenings are a relaxed environment in which to watch films from our normal program with your little one.
- These screenings are for babies two and under. Please book tickets for the number of adults that will be attending.
- Lights will be left on throughout the film and the volume will be quieter, to create a calm environment for you to enjoy the film with your baby.
- We are breast-feeding friendly and have baby changing facilities available in both male and female toilets.
Please note, we don’t have much space for pushchair storage so we would appreciate it if you could come without one or fold it up in the downstairs foyer.

Screenings for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing
Screenings for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing
Our Captioned Screenings feature audio description on screen and are suitable for customers who suffer hearing difficulties or are completely deaf. Descriptive subtitles provide a detailed description of additional sounds that are part of the film eg: ‘doors creaks’ ‘phone rings’ and songs, often with lyrics. Captioned Screenings will be listed in the programme.
For our hard of hearing customers we have headsets available that play audio from the film in-ear. A member of staff at the bar will be happy to supply these for you prior to the screening. We recommend you bring your own headphones but we can provide them if needed.
Audio Description
For our partially sighted or blind customers our headsets can also play audio description. Our headsets play a specially recorded narrative which describes what’s happening on screen but doesn’t interfere with the film’s dialogue. A member of staff will be happy to supply these for you prior to the screening. We recommend you bring your own headphones but we can provide them if needed.
