You can buy tickets in person at Dunoon Burgh Hall Café between 11am and 3pm, Wednesdays to Saturdays or on arrival at the individual screenings.
Certificates
Each film in the programme has a certificate from U (Universal) to 18 (over 18s only). It is a legal requirement to observe this certification. PG indicates Parental Guidance – PG films are not suitable for children under eight years of age. A 12A certificate requires that an adult accompanies children under 12.
Any film not already certificated by the British Board of Film Classification has been given a suggested certificate, which we will treat as legally binding.
Travel
By Car
The A82 and A83 connects Glasgow and Inveraray via the Rest and Be Thankful pass. A few miles west of the pass (or east if you’re coming from Inveraray), turn south onto the A815. Alternatively take the M8 west from Glasgow towards Gourock, where you can catch a ferry to Dunoon.
By Ferry
Regular services from Gourock are run by Western Ferries for cars and Argyll Ferries for foot passengers.

A regular Scotrail service from Glasgow Central serves Gourock. The train station is next to the Argyll Ferries terminal, and it’s possible to buy a joint train and ferry ticket.

West Coast Motors provide regular services to the area.
