Still Making A Scene Matinee – relaxed family friendly (PG/12A) + filmmaker Q&A

Delapre Abbey

Join us for our relaxed, family friendly Opening Gala matinee which includes a soft drink in the ticket price. Walk the red carpet with us and watch some amazing films in a beautiful Northampton venue. Come dressed up ready to have your photo taken or come in whatever you feel comfortable in! Photos are optional (and free!). We'll also have an opportunity to ask filmmakers present about their films after watching them. Most of the films you'll be watching are part of our 18yrs and Under category, made by local and British young filmmakers. There's also music, comedy, dance and drama. We've got 2 screenings in one event for you - a PG screening 3pm-4pm then a short interval followed by a 20-minute 12A screening from about 3.15pm. For those that just want to see the PG films, there will be entertainment for you in other rooms in the Abbey - so bring the family and make a creative afternoon of it! All children must be accompanied by a paying adult.
