Ticket & Booking Information
At Tyneside Cinema, we are continually striving to make film accessible to all. We have a range of offers and discounts to make sure everyone has a chance to experience the magic of cinema.
Booking Process
Tickets for all of our screenings at Tyneside Cinema can be booked in person at our Box Office located in the ground floor foyer, or from our website.
If you book tickets via the website a booking fee of £2.50 will be applied to the transaction unless you are a Friend member or Young Tyneside member, in which case you can book online at no additional cost!
When you purchase your ticket(s) via the website, or ask for your tickets to be sent digitally when booking at the Box Office, you will be sent two emails: One is your transaction confirmation, and the other contains your E-ticket(s), sent as a PDF attachment. When attending your screening(s) you will need to present your E-ticket PDF to enter the screen: You can do this by showing the PDF on a smart device or printing it off. You can also visit our Box Office in advance of the screening and ask for your tickets to be printed, although we would encourage you not to print tickets off unless necessary.
Standard Ticket Prices
Below you can download a list of our most common ticket pricing structures. On occasion different pricing structures will be applied to special event screenings.
Please note that only one discount can be applied to a ticket. Tickets purchased with a membership discount cannot have additional discounts applied.
3D Screenings have a £2.00 supplement, which is included in the ticket price.
£5 Mondays
Every Monday we handpick a selection of films recommended by the Tyneside Cinema team, with tickets priced at just £5 for everyone.
From amazing independent discoveries to major new releases and big screen classics, find out which films you can see for £5 this week by following us on social media, or sign up to our What’s On Weekly email newsletter to find out which screenings will be discounted each week.
Please note that our £5 Monday screenings are not eligible for additional discounts.

- Passport (or a photocopy of your passport)

If you are asked to provide ID to prove your age and you are unable or unwilling, you will not be permitted to attend the screening in question. If you are refused entry to a screening on this basis a refund may be given on affected tickets entirely at the discretion of the Box Office team.
Our £2 Benefit Ticket
We are proud to offer a £2 Benefit Ticket to ensure that cinema is accessible to those who otherwise couldn’t afford it. Our £2 Benefit Ticket scheme is available for:

If you are eligible and would like to make use of our £2 Benefit Ticket scheme please speak to a member of our Box Office team, located on the Ground Floor of the cinema, to book your tickets.
We will ask for proof of eligibility for our £2 Benefit Tickets the first time you book, and then periodically after that. For the eligible forms of financial support we accept any recently-dated paper documents you might have been sent in regard to your application to receive the support, or that note your ongoing receipt of these benefits. In the absence of any recent paper documentation, we can also accept a recent bank statement that shows a deposit from the Department of Work and Pensions (This usually appears as DWP on bank statements).
