From sold-out premieres to intimate retrospectives with the directors themselves, our calendar is built around moments worth dressing up for. Pull up a velvet seat — the lights are about to go down.
Filter the season by what you love most — premieres, retrospectives, festivals, or evenings spent in conversation with the people who made the film.
Director Imani Okafor walks the carpet for her sweeping period drama before an exclusive advance screening. Champagne reception in the lobby from 6:30 PM.
Reserve a ticketThree days, fourteen features, one discovery after another. Our annual festival of debut and second-time filmmakers, with Q&As after every screening.
See the lineupA four-Saturday journey through "The Red Shoes," "Black Narcissus" and more, projected from archival 35mm prints. Introduced by curator Anaïs Lévesque.
View the seriesThe legendary film editor behind "Apocalypse Now" and "The English Patient" joins us for an intimate hour on rhythm, sound design, and the cut that changed cinema.
Members priorityThree short films from emerging directors, paired with three biodynamic wines chosen by sommelier Yara Beaumont. A standing, conversational evening.
Members areaOur annual open-air rooftop screening returns with a 35mm print of "Do the Right Thing." Picnic blankets, Neapolitan pizza from Sapori, and a long summer night.
Plan your visitEvery event is curated by our programmers — never algorithmic, never automated. Here is what you can expect across our calendar.
Advance screenings of the season's most anticipated films, with the talent in the room. Champagne, photography, and a lobby that knows how to dress up.
Spring Showcase, Autumn Noir, Winter Animation and more — multi-day programmes built around a single idea, with passes for the committed and tickets for the curious.
Restored prints of cinema's most essential films, projected the way their directors intended. Curated in partnership with national archives and private collectors.
Directors, editors, composers and critics in conversation — followed by a film they chose. A standing-room tradition every Friday in the Library Lounge.
Sommelier nights, archive previews, and a private screening every last Sunday of the month. Membership is the fast pass to the calendar's quietest, most rewarding nights.
Solstice on the rooftop, New Year's Eve in the Grand Auditorium, Valentine's in the mezzanine — four nights a year where the building itself becomes the show.
Here's how a typical premiere or speaker evening flows at Four Seasons Cinema — though our programmers love to surprise.
Book online up to four weeks ahead, or visit the box office. Members receive a 48-hour priority window for every marquee event.
The lobby opens 60 minutes before showtime. Pre-order from our bar, browse the evening's programme, and take your time settling in.
Every event opens with a few words — from the director, a critic, or our head programmer. Then the house lights drop.
Most premieres and speaker nights end with a Q&A in the auditorium, then a reception downstairs. The best conversations start here.
What makes a night at Four Seasons Cinema feel different from a multiplex — and worth planning a week in advance for.
Two full-time programmers and a rotating guest committee choose every film on the calendar. No data-driven scheduling, no fourth-quartile filler.
The 480-seat Grand Auditorium, the 96-seat Studio, the 35mm-only Screen Two, and the rooftop — each with its own personality and its own programming.
Filmmakers, composers, and the occasional legendary critic. We pay for them to be there because the conversation afterwards is half the film.
A few of the things people have written to us after a sold-out evening at Four Seasons Cinema.
I've done premieres in every major city, and Four Seasons is the only house that still treats the audience like guests. The Q&A felt like dinner with friends who happen to love film.
My membership has paid for itself three times over. The sommelier nights alone — and the way the programmer remembers your name when you walk in — make it feel like a club, not a cinema.
Watching 'Do the Right Thing' in 35mm on the rooftop for the solstice screening is now a permanent fixture in my calendar. There is simply nowhere else like it in the city.
