The Electric Theatre Cinema is all about engaging, affecting films – both showing them to our community and engendering the making of them.

We’re a not-for-profit community interest company, bringing community cinema and themed events to both our home base of Marsden and further afield.

We source and show interesting, independent films and encourage the creation of short films by showcasing new talent (watch this space for news about our first film festival).

We sometimes have separate family-orientated events too, so everyone can enjoy the kinds of films you may not see at the local multiplex. And we sometimes also host Food and Film nights: wonderful themed evenings that bring together a great mix of people to enjoy a three-course meal before watching the film itself.

“Inspired film choices, good food, a warm, friendly atmosphere and above all, a chance to relax, unwind and lose yourself in another world. The multiplexes don’t even come close to offering such a shared experience”  

Where you’ll find us:

Electric Theatre Cinema has a regular event on the first Sunday of the month at the Marsden British Legion (Grange Estate, Marsden, Huddersfield HD7 6AJ).

Bar and doors open at 7pm, film starts at 7.30pm.

We sometimes also host events elsewhere, venues will be detailed on the relevant news post or on the Events page.
