Accessible shows & screenings

Audio described & captioned

We are the only cinema provider of accessible film content within an hour’s drive of Aberystwyth. Widening access is also an important part of our programme, so we regularly programme Audio Described and Subtitled films.  These will be advertised in the title of the film.

Take a look at the Hynt website for accessible events. www.hynt.co.uk

Relaxed 

Our relaxed screenings change the usual environment in the theatre or cinema so it’s more comfortable for a range of needs. These changes include:

  • No adverts or trailers
  • Subtitles
  • Low-level lighting
  • Reduced volume
  • Freedom to make noise and move around

These will be advertised in the title of the film.
