At Film Unit, we believe that cinema is for everyone. That’s why it's important to us that no access issue gets in the way of you enjoying the cinema experience.
We have dedicated wheelchair spaces in our auditorium. If you have any other accessibility requirements or suggestions to improve our service, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
We’re a single screen cinema based in the Sheffield Students’ Union Nelson Mandela Auditorium. Make your way to the Students’ Union, located in Western Bank (just off Glossop Road).
Once inside, you can find us by descending the stairs located outside Coffee Revolution. You can find your ticket QR code on the email sent to you after buying your ticket online. If you can’t find us, any of the SU staff will be able to point you in the right direction.
You don’t have to be a student to enjoy Film Unit. Everyone can come and see our films.
You can buy a ticket online from https://su.sheffield.ac.uk/events, or you can buy tickets on the door (CARD ONLY).
Buying a ticket on the door is strongly recommended for non-students - the Students' Union page can be a pain to buy from!
If the film is appropriate, absolutely! ID or proof of age may be required for films 12A and above rated screenings.
The cinema has disabled access via ramps and lifts, and dedicated wheelchair spaces.
Film Unit screen on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays during term time. Generally screenings begin at 19:30, but make sure to check, as longer films may be screened at earlier times!
