Shipley Film Society has shown films at the Kirkgate Centre in the winter months (because it’s too light to show films in the summer) for the past 13 years or so.

With the centre closing for a refurbishment soon, our 2023 - 2024 season is both up in the air and open to suggestions.

If you’d like to be involved, or have ideas to share, please get in touch and sign up for our newsletter.

Our 2022 - 23 Film Season is over

Our season kicked off on Friday September 23rd 2022, and ended with our final film on the 28th April 2023.

In reverse order we showed:

• Riders of Justice
• Le Doulos
• Cold War
• 9 to 5
• Lucky
• 8 Women
• Smoke
• Night On Earth

This season marked our return after the covid cancellations of recent years.

We brought back a couple of films that had to be cancelled during the pandemic, and our volunteers selected a bunch of other great films for our audience to discover, revisit, and enjoy.

Get involved

The film society is run entirely by volunteers. Please drop us line or chat to us after a film if you’d like to get more involved. Membership is simple and free - just join our mailing list!

A bar is open before films, serving wines, beers and non-alcoholic drinks, and cake.

Are you sitting comfortably?

We love the Kirkgate Centre and we’d especially love to see it re-furbished! Until that happens, it can get a little cool in the winter, so bring along a cushion and blanket if you like!

Bradford Metropolitan Foodbank

We ask everyone who comes to look though your cupboards and bring along some non-perishable food for distribution to those struggling to feed themselves or their family. We really look forward to the day when this is no longer necessary.

All our films are still shown at the Kirkgate Centre , situated in the centre of Shipley and opposite the town hall. The full address is:
