Films

The Ashcroft offers you another stunning season of films. With tickets priced at just £3.50, it’s a bargain. Or you can take out a season membership and see all 10 films for just £25.

The Ashcroft continually strives to bring you the films you want to see as quickly as titles are available. Unfortunately, there always remains the possibility that distributors are unable to supply the advertised titles, and therefore the centre reserves the right to cancel or substitute films where appropriate.
