Hull Screen

Hull Screen opened in 1969, making it one of the oldest film theatres in the country. It is the region’s foremost independent cinema and the best of world cinema is at the core of its programme.

But Hull Screen also caters for all groups, with its -

• Saturday children’s matinees
• Friday afternoon performances of more mainstream and classic movies from the National Film Archive
• special events, such as silent films with live accompaniment

The cinema also hosts the annual ‘Made in Hull’ event  - an event which gives local people a platform to see their films on the ‘big screen’. And Hull Screen is also home to the annual Hull International Short Film Festival organised by Hull Film (link opens in new window).

Location

The cinema can be found in the University of Lincoln building on George Street. It has been fitted with the latest Dolby Digital sound system along with a ‘state of the art’ digital projector in order to become part of the Film Council’s Digital Screen Network.

The university’s café is open until 4pm Monday – Friday (serving hot food until 1.30pm). Vending machines are available outside these hours.

Tickets for the cinema can be bought at the Carr Lane booking office which is open Monday to Saturday 10am - 5.30pm or at Hull Screen an hour before each screening.
