Welcome and membership information

Welcome to the Manchester and Salford Film Society website.

The Society was founded in 1930 and is the oldest continuously run film society in the UK. Our aim is to show interesting, engaging and challenging films from many countries and periods as a glance at our current programme  will show. New members are very welcome and can find further information about membership fees below. The Society has a full programme of films throughout the year, with the new season starting in September. Films are shown monthly on Saturdays at 7.30pm.

In September we celebrate our 80th season, with special events thoughout the year.

The screenings are in the Club Theatre , Altrincham which has excellent bar facilities where members and their guests can relax before and after the film.

The Society recently invested in new projection equipment so that the films can be seen and heard at their best, with a new, bigger screen and improved projection facilities including Blu Ray.
