In 2025, almost 1100 films were released in cinemas across the combined UK & Ireland market. However this is only a small part of the estimated 7,000 films produced each year globally.

Of those released in UK and Ireland, only 224 are widely screened meaning that smaller, less headline-grabbing films are harder to find in commercial cinemas.

This means that we are all missing out on some great films and the Lambay Cinema Club is doing all it can to bring these lesser-seen, but world-class movies to the peninsula.

The Lambay Cinema Club was born out of the Bleeding Pig cultural festival in 2022 and is run by volunteers. We have monthly screenings in the unique setting of St Patrick’s Church of Ireland church in The Square and aim to show the best of World and Irish cinema.

Everyone is welcome and we even provide the Tea and Biscuits!

For more details please visit www.lambaycinemaclub.com to get details of upcoming films. You can also sign up to our email list so you are kept informed of future screenings and also book tickets. Tickets are on sale one week in advance.

We’re proud to be rooted in our local area, and equally proud of the growing audience who support us each month. Whether you’re a regular or visiting for the first time, you’ll always find a warm welcome at Lambay Cinema Club.
