Welcome to your community cinema, bringing the best in film to Long Ashton
Long Ashton Community Cinema is a non-profit group run by local volunteers. Our aim is to offer a wide variety of good quality films at affordable prices on your doorstep. We aim to screen at least one film at month and we want our local cinema to be a social place where the audience can have a drink and a chat before and after the screening. We strongly believe that a cinema run by the community for the community can play a vital part in village life.
Bringing people together
Going to the cinema is great with friends, but not everyone has the same taste in film, so, if you are coming on your own feel free to drop us an email - or reach up on Facebook, and we’ll make sure there is a friendly welcome when you arrive, and someone to enjoy the film with if you would like that too. Our team of volunteers love a good natter, about films, or anything else so there will always be someone to chat to.
LA Cinema – how we are funded
As a community cinema we are entirely self-funding. That means we rely heavily on ticket sales, sales from the bar and sponsorship to keep us going. We gratefully received funding from Long Ashton Parish Council to purchase our own screen, projector and audio equipment. We are always looking for new sponsors and are willing to discuss with you levels of sponsorship and donation and what we can do for you in return.

“Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel are the double act of the year.” Peter Bradshaw, Guardian Film review.
Join L A Cinema for The Christophers, Steven Soderbergh’s sharp and witty comedy-drama starring Ian McKellen, Michaela Coel, Jessica Gunning and James Corden.
When the estranged children of a once-famous artist hire a talented forger to secretly complete his abandoned paintings, their plan to secure an inheritance takes an unexpected turn. Clever, funny and touching, this art-world tale explores creativity, ageing, ambition and the complicated question of what we leave behind.
With an outstanding cast, razor-sharp dialogue and an intriguing premise, The Christophers is a smart, entertaining story about art, family, ambition and the price of leaving a legacy.
