Kids Club, Sensory and Subtitled Screenings at Arc Cinema Ennis

What to Expect

Alongside its main programme, Arc Cinema Ennis runs four standing strands aimed at audiences the regular schedule does not always suit. Kids Club is the cheapest way into the cinema in the county, with tickets at €4 for all seat types on a rotating selection of family films. Subtitled screenings run on Monday evenings, with on-screen captions for Deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences, and they are priced at standard admission rather than carrying a supplement.

Sensory screenings take place on a regular monthly basis, with the sound turned down and the house lights left partly up so that the room stays calm, and audiences are free to move around during the film. Parent and baby screenings usually run monthly too, with slightly dimmed lights and lower sound levels so that infants can be brought along without disturbing a full auditorium. All four strands are programmed around current releases, which means the titles change week to week and the specific dates for the monthly screenings are published in the cinema’s own listings rather than fixed to a set calendar date. Standard admission at the cinema starts from €7.95 per person.
