What’s New?

Welcome to 2026

Thank you to all our members who joined in 2025. We are hoping you will all join us again in 2026 to connect with other film lovers to watch movies that you won’t see anywhere else in Broken Hill on the big screen.

We had a successful meeting in November last year where a number of our members voted on a shortlist of movies that we will be looking to screen this year (subject to availability of screening licences). The calendar of films for the first term will be published once dates are confirmed with the venues. Keep an eye out for the MailChimp emails which will provide updates, and follow our Facebook and/or Instagram pages.

Broken Hill City Council Grant

We are pleased to announce that Broken Hill City Council has awarded us a grant to purchase a large portable screen. We are planning to purchase this screen in the next couple of months which will allow us to expand the number of venues that we are able to use for showing films. We are in discussions with The Broken Hill Repertory Society with the hope of creating special event screenings at Theatre 44.

2026 Membership fees

Fees for 2026 have been increased to $50 for annual membership. The joining fee remains at $5.00. If you are a current member, $50 will allow you to see all the great films that we show next year, as well as three guest passes. For new members, the initial payment will be $55.00. Due to the unavoidable cancellation of the film Hugo last year, there are additional discounts for members who joined in October or November. Visit our Membership page for all the details.

Payment for 2026 fees can be made on line or in person at the next movie.

Transgrid Grant

As part of Transgrid’s Community Partnership Program, we have been fortunate to receive a grant to upgrade the DVD/BluRay player and associated equipment for films showing outside the cinema, and also a portable PA system which will enable film discussions and announcements to be heard easily.
