how this works

cinéSARNIA’s film season is comprised of 11 films over 8 months:

• • 5 films in the FALL with the first film scheduled at the end of September
  • 6 films in the WINTER with the final film scheduled at the beginning of April
  • All 11 films have TWO screenings at the Sarnia Public Library:
    • Sunday Matinee @2:00 pm AND
    • on the following Monday Evening at 7:00 pm  *** NEW TIME ***

Film lovers can see the films by either buying online through the cinéSARNIA website:

• • an Individual Ticket for a specific film  OR
  • a Multi-Film Pass

When purchasing a Multi-Film Pass, you will choose if you want to see all of the films at the Sunday Matinee screenings OR at the Monday Evening screenings. Passholders are usually expected to attend the screening time they chose for each of their films, e.g. Monday Evening passholders should not regularily show up for the Sunday Matinee instead.  However, if you find that the other showing works out better for you for a particular film, feel free to come on that showing.  When our membership was at capacity, we asked that you stick to the day you chose, but we have since relaxed this issue as seating is not as much at a premium.

Types of Passes:

• • FULL SEASON – Sunday Matinee (11 films) @ $99
  • FULL SEASON – Monday Evening (11 films ) @ $99
  • FALL ONLY – Sunday Matinee (5 films) @ $55
  • FALL ONLY – Monday Evening (5 films) @ $55
  • WINTER ONLY – Sunday Matinee (6 films) @ $66
  • WINTER ONLY – Monday Evening (6 films) @ $66

When passes go on sale in the summer, we will post the screening dates of the 11 films and usually the titles of the first 5 films of the Fall season.  As the committee visits film festivals throughout the Fall, the remaining films will get booked and posted on the website.
