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.
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.
