Make your event memorable
To book your event or check availability, email: manager@citycinema.ca
Include your name, the date and time you’re interested in showing the film, the film you’d like to show, the runtime, and any additional requirements you may have for your screening.
If you’d like to do a screening that’s open to the public we can assist you in acquiring the license to screen a specific film.
We encourage you to book early to reserve your preferred date and time. If your booking will replace one of our regular showtimes (7:00 daily and 2:00 on Saturdays) please contact us by the 1st day of the month before the month of your rental e.g., first of January for a February show.
