Welcome

The Wellington Film Society shows films the way they were meant to be seen, on a big cinema screen with a large crowd of like-minded people, and shows a range of international cinema you are unlikely to see elsewhere. Membership gives you free entry to all our screenings. Full year members also qualify for generous discounts at the annual NZIFF in July/August, as well as discounts at Wellington cinemas and Aro Video.

Who We Are

The Wellington Film Society is run on behalf of its members by a voluntary committee elected at the Annual General Meeting held in March each year. We are a non- profit incorporated society, affiliated to the New Zealand Federation of Film Societies, which has been screening films in Wellington for 75 years. There are also film societies in Auckland, Hamilton, Whanganui, Palmerston North, Nelson, Canterbury, Timaru and Dunedin, and several smaller centres. Membership also gives you free entry at any of these other film societies in New Zealand.

More Info

Following the announcement from Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern that we return to Covid-19 Alert Level Two for a week from 6.00am Sunday 28 February, we advise that Wellington Film Society screenings are again suspended. I Am Love will not screen on Monday 1 March. At this alert level, gatherings are restricted to 100 people and physical distancing applies. This suspension will remain in place until we are back at Level One with no restrictions.
