Viewing Archived Events: Film
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (18)
Tarantino’s 9th film is a sprawling fairy-tale tribute to the final moments of Hollywood’s golden age. The year is 1969, and fading actor Rick Dalton and his long-time stunt double Cliff Booth are struggling to keep up with the changing times.
Open Air Cinema 2019
Plymouth Arts Cinema’s Open Air Cinema is returning for 2019, offering audiences the opportunity to enjoy their favourite films in a series of iconic city locations.
Bohemian Rhapsody at Royal William Yard [SOLD OUT]
Be sure to catch our last open air screening of the utterly brilliant, Oscar-winning Bohemian Rhapsody. Join in the singing, dance along and wear a white vest if you dare!
The Rocky Horror Picture Show at Royal William Yard
The film that the description ‘Cult Classic’ was made for. Dress to impress, bring your best feather boa and your very best dance moves to do the Time Warp with us on Friday the 13th.
Captain Marvel at Royal William Yard
With a fierce performance from Brie Larson, this is the superhero film we’ve all been waiting for.
The Dead Don’t Die (15)
Set in the fictitious sleepy middle-America town of Centerville, acclaimed director Jim Jarmusch assembles his largest celebrity cast yet to take on the undead in this zombie-comedy.
The Birds at Tinside Lido [SOLD OUT]
What better place to watch the Hitchcock classic about killer birds than right on the waterfront, surrounded by seagulls who want to steal your pasties?!
Bohemian Rhapsody at Tinside Lido [SOLD OUT]
The first of our two summer screenings of the Oscar-winning Bohemian Rhapsody. Freddie Mercury defied stereotypes and shattered convention to become one of the most beloved entertainers on the planet.
Alien at Tinside Lido [SOLD OUT]
In Tinside, no one can hear you scream! Ridley Scott’s sci-fi masterpiece is 40 years old this year so we thought we would celebrate with a special open air screening to remind ourselves of just how atmospheric and terrifying this still is.

Thank you so much to everybody who donated to our Crowdfunder campaign!
We’ll be in touch with donors by email before the end of January with details about rewards.
We exceeded our target of £10,000 to raise £11,745, and were blown away by all the kind comments of love and support.
Thanks to Plymouth City Council who donated £5000 to the campaign from the City Change Fund.
Big thanks to the our brilliant suppliers and cultural partners across Plymouth who donated rewards: Salcombe Dairy, Summerskills Brewery, Canton Tea, Tolchards, Ocean Studios, Plymouth Gin.
As the cost of living crisis bites, we don’t want people to break the habit of coming to the cinema because it’s something they can no longer afford. There’s no better way to watch a film than to make an event of it and see it on the big screen, with an audience. You won’t be asked any questions if you choose this price point, just choose the Budget Ticket option when you book.
