The Cathedral Film Society

The Cathedral Film Society works in collaboration with Picture House Cinemas and shows one film a month at the Abbeygate Picture House Cinema in Hatter Street here in Bury St Edmunds. Members enjoy watching classic films on the big screen. Recent showings include The Maltese Falcon, Kind Hearts and Coronets, and Billy Elliot. The films are shown on Sunday evenings at 7.00 p.m. Members receive a discount on the ticket price and mailings advertising each season of films. Occasionally, we also have social evenings at the Cathedral. For more information about joining, please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
