We will always try and go ahead with the pop up cinema even in the event of bad weather. Please check the weather forecast in advance and be prepared for the Great British Summer. Our Pop up Cinema screenings will only be cancelled if the weather conditions present a danger at screening time. Patrons accept the risk that weather they consider unsatisfactory may occur on a screening night, and acknowledge that tickets will not be exchanged or refunded unless a screening is cancelled by The Paddock Picturehouse. In the unlikely event that a screening is cancelled, we will aim to give as much notice as possible, so please keep an eye out for information on the website and social media.
