Private Hire
Both auditoriums here at The Kinema In The Woods are available for private hire.
Kinema One has a seating capacity of 265
Kinema Two has a seating capacity of 92
The auditoriums are available to hire for a wide range of events, such as:
Private parties – We offer very reasonable rates for film screenings of either current releases, or old favourites. We can accommodate a large variety of needs – whether it be a private viewing of the latest family film for your child’s birthday party and a group of friends, or the chance to see much loved classics back on the big screen for a special occasion.
Schools and large group bookings – End of term treat, or films to fit in with the curriculum, we can do both! Suitable films include ‘The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas’ and ‘Goodnight Mr Tom’.
Award shows and presentations – The Kinema is a versatile venue which can cater for more than just films, and the Compton Organ in Kinema One or the Grand Piano in Kinema Two add a special touch to proceedings.
Film premieres – Budding filmmakers can show off their latest works in style on the big screen. Ideal for schools and colleges to make a red carpet event of their students’ short films in unique surroundings.
Past events we have held include:
A Gala screening of The Dam Busters for the 70th Anniversary 15th May 2013


The British Independent Film Festival - 11th/12th May 2013
The Lincolnshire Heritage Awards
