Another fantastic year of movies lies ahead!
Memberships are on sale for 2024.
Our movies are on the last Friday of the month (except for December) in the Rangatahi Hub at the Carterton Events Centre (enter via the back lane that runs beside the clocktower).
Doors open at 7 pm for you to enjoy a cuppa, some fabulous cake or snacks (with gluten-free options), and chat with friends before heading into the movie screening at 7.30 pm.
We offer memberships that get you entry into all 11 films shown over the year – for a ridiculously good price. A bit tentative? We've got a 3-trip sampler membership available as well.
So sign up now for 2024. The world’s best art-house films – right here in Carterton!
As a film society with non-commercial screening rights, we must screen to members only. Your subscription contributes to venue hire, programming services and administration costs.
About Us
The Carterton Film Society is a registered charity and member of the New Zealand Federation of Film Societies. The Federation has been screening films throughout NZ for more than 60 years. There are film societies in Dunedin, Canterbury, Nelson, Wellington, Palmerston North, Hamilton and Auckland.
Film societies specialise in screening quality films from around the world. These include documentaries, features, short films, classics, director retrospectives and national cinema seasons.
Carterton Film Society membership is open to everyone. We operate an annual membership because we have non-commercial screening rights, and must screen to members only. Your annual subscription contributes to venue hire, programming services and administration costs.
Like all film societies, Carterton Film Society is run by volunteers. If you’re interested in becoming a volunteer please contact us either online or have a chat with any of the team at the Sunset Cinema screening nights. We’re always keen to hear from people who want to help out with publicity, ushering, film screening etc. Our AGM is in November and a committee of four is elected for the next year.
