The Film Place is an independent, part-time community cinema. It is a not-for-profit charitable company, run by volunteers.
We screen films every week at our luxurious theatre in Buckingham University’s Vinson Building with comfortable seating, surround sound, air conditioning – all the trimmings of a purpose-built theatre. The Vinson Building is accessed from Hunter Street, with free parking in the Island Car Park (enter via Hunter Street) just a short walk from the building, disabled parking spaces are located to the front and side of the building.
