Private Hire

We are always very happy to welcome educational establishments, businesses and community groups into our cinema and event venue. Whether you want to arrange a private showing of a film you’re studying, a work-related reward or team building event, an AGM, a meeting, a lecture, a prize-giving ceremony, a bespoke educational event, a class reward trip or a screening of student work - our committed team will create an event that caters to your needs.

We also hire the cinema for private parties, lectures and gaming events! Please enquire at the Box Office for more details or email info@harbourlightscinema.co.fk

The lecture theatre allows for Laptops or BluRay to be connected to the projector. The system is also set up for various microphone options to allow for perfect sound throughout your presentation.

The seats are equipped with a folding table in the armrest to enable notes to be taken during lectures and presentations.

Weddings One of the most exciting reasons to have a HarbourLights is the use of our projection and sound facilities to add that personal touch. From starring in your own short film to walking down the aisle to your favourite piece of music, video messages from friends and family from around the world, your guests will experience a wedding like no other.

Here's some helpful information on how these screenings work.

Films

We have a wide range of films available for to book for a private screening. Unfortunately, we are unable to screen films that are currently playing in the cinema at a reduced rate. A minimum period of six weeks will be required to book a film.

You can also screen your own work. For this, we require the film on DVD at least 10 working days before your event to run a test through our systems.

Timings

We are able to arrange private screenings for educational establishments and community groups starting between 9.30am and 10.30am, Mon-Fri (subject to availability). Unfortunately, we are able to organise private screenings at weekends (when we have our public daily sessions).

For commercial hire, the cinema can be booked when required, however a notice period of 12 weeks is required. Full prepayment for the event will be taken at the time of booking. If you would like to arrange a group booking for a film that is currently on release in the public programme, please contact the box office.

The Booking Process

To request a private screening, please contact our box office

We require a minimum of six weeks to arrange a private screening. This gives us enough time to book in your film, confirm availability, arrange our staff rota and raise your invoice and receive advance payment.

Once we have responded to your enquiry, we are able to pencil you into our calendar for 5 working days. Please note that your booking cannot be finalised until your invoice has been raised.

Food & Drink

As our private screenings may take place early morning before we open to the public, the cinemas’ kiosk will not be open. If you would like to purchase drinks and snacks, this will need to be ordered in advance and we will then simply add the cost to your invoice when you are finalising your booking. No outside food or drink is permitted to be consumed within the cinema. Need more than a cinema treat/snack, why not enquire about our variety of food and beverage packages supplied by the Malvina House Hotel to add to your screening, from canapes and buffets to indulgent sit down three course menus.
