Dog Friendly Screenings

We all love dogs at Abbeygate Cinema, so we have decided to put on some special showings where canine companions can join you in the cinema screen.

Every few weeks, well-behaved dogs and their friendly owners are welcome at a select film screening. It’s a great way for dog owners to enjoy cinema without having to leave their best friend at home and to meet fellow dog-owning film fans.

Our upcoming dog friendly screenings are:

Sunday 6 September 10:30am | THE INCOMER

Sunday 27 September 10:30am | SENSE AND SENSIBILITY

Sunday 11 October 10:30am | THE SOCIAL RECKONING

Sunday 1 November 10:30am | WICKER

Our programming is done on a weekly basis, so please check our website the week of your chosen screening to book.

We always have snacks and water ready and ensure all dogs sit on a blanketed seat as to avoid any hairs or mess. After the event, the screen is thoroughly cleaned making sure those furry cinephiles leave no trace behind. To further cater to cinema-loving pooches, the volume is dipped as we know they have superhero hearing powers. See our full dog friendly screening policy here.

Plus, our Box Office on Hatter Street, Bury St Edmunds is dog-friendly all day, every day! Join us for a coffee, a slice of cake or a glass of wine — we’ve got treats for your dog too.
