From September 2011 the Barbican is changing the activity element of Family Film Club.
While still offering a programmed film for families every Saturday, the participatory offer will now widen its focus to encompass all artforms - art, theatre and music as well as film. While this won't take place every single week, it will be regular, high quality activities that will provide both children and parents greater opportunity to experience the arts and the range that we offer at the Barbican. FFC is designed for families to take part in together, so children must be accompanied by a parent or carer and no unaccompanied adults are admitted.
Rating information for all films screened at FFC can be found on the
BBFC website. Please check the rating information before booking your tickets.

Big Screen And then the lights go down and the big screen entertainment begins – ranging from the brand new hot releases to classics from the archives and movies from the four corners of the globe that you won’t see anywhere else. See all these great films as they’re meant to be seen – on the big screen.
Fun monthly themes All the films, workshops and activities are tied into a theme which changes every single month. To see whether this month’s theme is
Magic and Sorcery,
Animal Magic, or something you never thought they’d make films about,
