Underground Cinema is not just a movie. It's a 4+ hour immersive participatory experience unlike any other. This is not your average multiplex experience; arriving at our secret locations is like walking onto a film set with actors, sets and costumes. We keep our locations a secret and the films identity a mystery too. Prepare.

You will discover the secret location 24 hours prior to the first show via email & SMS to the contact information you provided at the time of ticket purchase. It will also be posted here on the website and the Underground Cinema Facebook event page on the first showday of the series. Venue locations are chosen with consideration to PT travel time for guests, with timings based off an inner city starting point.

Whilst exploring this live cinematic world you will be able to purchase food & drinks to nourish your body whilst we feed your soul. Cards & cash welcome. Don't forget this is an 18 years+ show and we comply with all RSA requirements.

To create entire worlds at this scale takes time. Be patient. Surrender. All information will be revealed in due time, including when the next series of shows will take place, whatever city that may be. To be the first to know you should: Sign up to our Mailing List here.
