Weather

What if it rains? How is a screening cancelled & what happens?

Telethon Community Cinemas is an all-weather outdoor event.  All screenings will proceed in rain, wind, or shine unless weather conditions pose a serious risk to the safety of patrons and crew.  If we cancel a screening all tickets are valid for any other screening (with restrictions) at any venue for any future screening even beyond the current Season.  We do not provide refunds as such.

We will:

  • SMS the mobile number of the person who booked your ticket.
  • Email the person who booked your ticket with instructions on how to transfer your tickets.
  • Post a cancellation notice on our website on that session & on our Facebook page usually by 5:30pm at the latest.

We wait until the latest Bureau of Meteorology forecast that arrives around 4:30pm plus assess the rain radar before making a decision if the situation is unclear.  If, earlier, the rain has settled in the session is likely to be cancelled at that time.

What if the screening goes ahead but I am not comfortable about attending?

Telethon Community Cinemas allows its patrons to transfer their ticketing at any time, for any reason, up to 6pm on the night of the screening to any future screening with similar price points.  Select the header Ticket Information on our website and then from the dropdown menu click on Change My Booking.  Follow the instructions to change your booking.

If you do not change your booking and the screening proceeds the responsibility and decision, not to have been pro-active in changing your booking, is deemed to have been yours.

What time do gates open and films start & end?

Gates open at 6:30pm except where indicated.  The film starts at 7:45pm except where indicated.  We recommend arriving early to get the best spot as there is no reserved seating.  It also gives you time to grab your food and drink and settle in for the evening.  Screening end times depend upon the length of the film.  A film’s running time is shown when you refer to that screening.

Can I bring the kids along?

Children are most welcome as we are an all-age venue.  Please note we do screen MA15+ movies which requires children under 15 to be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

Are infants & babies welcome?

Most certainly but if you have a very young one, we simply ask you to be conscious of other patrons should your child become restless and find a quieter place in the venue to settle them.

What should I bring?

To enjoy your outdoor cinema experience, we suggest the following things – layering up or bringing a blanket for those chillier nights and insect repellent to keep those mozzies away.  FREE insect repellent and hand sanitiser is available at all venues at entry and on our counters.  We have throw and picnic rugs for sale..

If you have not hired any seating you are welcome to bring your own rugs, bean bags, lawn chairs etc.  Just be aware that taller chairs will be restricted to designated areas of the venue so that everyone can see the screen.

Where can I get a copy of a venue's programme?

Our programme in list form can be downloaded from the website for each venue.

Can I bring a bicycle or pram into the venue?

Yes, you are welcome to bring bicycles or prams into the venue, however, you do so at your own risk.  We request that bicycles be stored to one side.

Is this an accessible event?

All venues are wheelchair or restricted mobility friendly. Designated parking is located close to the entrance of the cinemas.

A Companion Card holder and their carer have complimentary admission when presenting cards at the box office on the night.

Unfortunately, due to the technical requirements of outdoor cinema, we are unable to offer any closed caption or audio descriptive screenings.

For further information, please contact us directly at admin@communitycinemas.com.au or phone 0403 560 684 M-F excluding public holidays between 10am and 6pm.

Can I bring my dog or other pets?

Sadly, generally speaking, no.  As much as we love our furry and other pets, we have restrictions set by our venues.  However, service dogs are certainly permitted provided appropriate proof can be provided.

Burswood does have the occasional dog-friendly screening which are listed on the programming.

 

 

 

Can I smoke or vape?

No, current laws restrict smoking within any venue or place of entertainment and we equally forbid vaping for the convenience of others.  Patrons may step outside the venue to smoke or vape.

I’ve lost something at the cinema.

We do a sweep of the venue each evening so hopefully we’ve found it.  Please phone 0403 560 684 10am to 6pm Monday to Friday (excluding Public Holidays) or email admin@communitycinemas.com.au

Food, Drinks & Seating

Can I bring my own items?

Whilst our pricing is very modest compared to most cinemas, we also allow our patrons to self-cater except for BYO alcohol. Unfortunately liquor licensing laws stipulate that BYO alcohol is not permitted at our venues. Otherwise, everything else is fine.

You can bring your own picnic rugs, camper chairs or bean bag lounges or hire from the venue.

What food & drinks are available?

How do I collect my pre-ordered bean bag lounge or fold-up chair?

Pre-ordered bean bag lounges and fold-up chairs can be collected inside the venue. Our volunteers at the gate will direct you to the collection point. Personal ID may be required.

If I have rugs, low to ground seats or beanbag lounges, how can I ensure my view isn't blocked by patrons in high camper chairs?

We have designated seating areas at all venues and patrons are asked to respect this.

At Burswood, Bassendean and Murdoch, we divide the venue into left and right sides with taller forms of seating restricted to the right side.

At ECU Joondalup Pines, tall seating is restricted to designated hard surface areas.

Our volunteers will assist patrons in finding the right spot.

No, you can use them at any time (with some restrictions) in any number across multiple screenings.
