The Abbey Cinema will be celebrating some film anniversaries, alongside the usual film programme.
Alien’s 40th Anniversary is on Friday 22nd March.
The Great Escape’s 75th Anniversary is on Sunday 24th March.
Monty Python’s Life of Brian’s 40th Anniversary is on Thursday 18th April .
Saturday 16th March 2019 will see the return to the Guldhall of the Abingdon’s Clubs’ & Societies’ Day. This is where many of our clubs and societies have a display of what they do. It is a very good way to find what is happening in Abingdon – like a Freshers’ Fair.
The last Clubs’ & Societies’ Day was in 2016 in the Abbey Buildings.
Before that it was in the Guildhall every two years since Cllr Janet Morgan instituted the event when she was Mayor in 1989.
The event will be in the refurbished rooms in the old part of the Guildhall. The new management team, which operates both the Guildhall and the Abbey Cinema, will be on hand to welcome visitors, show them the new facilities and answer enquiries.
Bookings are now live for residents who wish to book events at the Guildhall and there is a new website at www.guildhall.ac and enquiry line 01235 524085.
