Description
Wimbledon Film Club is a welcoming, award-winning local club, screening at the Curzon Wimbledon cinema, close to Wimbledon Station. You can watch films in a comfortable setting, discuss them with fellow club members in the Curzon bar afterwards, listen to and quiz the many guest speakers we arrange, and suggest and vote on films for our programme. If you are a fan of cinema and looking for a like-minded community in the area – we’re it.
Screenings are on selected Tuesday evenings from September to June or July. See our website for details on the current programme. Doors open at 8pm and films start at 8.30pm. We provide film notes on the night. Carers are eligible for free tickets if arranged in advance and the cinema can provide 2 wheelchair spaces on notice (contact info@wimbledonfilmclub.co.uk to arrange).
Non-members are always welcome, but if you become a member you will get a range of benefits as well as heavily discounted tickets. Membership purchases and individual ticket sales are handled via Eventbrite.
Wimbledon Film Club is a registered charity (ref: 1117750) run for the whole community by a committee of unpaid volunteers. We are an independent, inclusive and politically unaligned club. Our charitable objectives are to advance the education of the public in the knowledge, understanding and appreciation of the arts, particularly the art of film and allied visual techniques. We are a member of Cinema for All.
