Due to changes in Queen’s University Belfast phone’s system we can no longer take payment over the phone. You can book online at any time or in person at the Box Office or Bar.

We follow BBFC guidelines. Find them here. If you look under the age of these restrictions, i.e. under 15 or under 18, you may be asked to show ID. We occasionally have films that are yet to be classified by the BBFC, in this case we are able to suggest a recommended age limit based on BBFC guidelines. These recommendations are legally binding and we will not permit entry to anyone under the recommended age.
