Thornbury Picture House believes that a good film deserves to be seen on a large screen with good sound and in the presence of a sizeable audience to build the atmosphere and heighten the emotions.

You can watch films at home any time, but watching on a local wide screen is an altogether different experience.

Non-members are very welcome.

Patrons who are not paid-up members of TPH, and guests of members, may purchase tickets, subject to availability, at the desk on club nights' price £5.00. Admission is subject to the Film classification certificate.

Have you ever wanted to leave the car at home and walk to a local film venue, one with a warm friendly atmosphere, where you can chat about the film afterwards with your friends?

We did, so we decided to create a film club: Our club name, Thornbury Picture House (TPH) , was inspired by the old cinema (1919-1959) in the High Street, which was renowned for being the social hub of Thornbury. We are now looking forward to our 6th season, just take a look at our current programme and we have a strong membership base to take the club forward. We meet usually once a month in the Armstrong Hall Complex in Chapel Street, Thornbury, BS35 2BJ and from September 2010 we have screened all the films in the more comfortable Cossham Hall.

Email us at films@thornburypicturehouse.org if you have a comment or suggestion for the committee.
