About Cave Cinema
Cave Cinema is an award-winning event, which takes place at Kents Cavern every Summer. Over July & August we screen cult classics, family favourites and spine-chilling horrors underground in our spectacular prehistoric setting. With a fully stocked bar, and a cafe serving incredible Pizzas and snacks, our venue has everything you need to make your visit memorable. Films start at 18:30 and 21:00 Wednesday-Friday, and doors open 15 minutes beforehand. Free on-site parking is a special perk for our cinema guests.
As a thank you for our visitor's support, if you wish to book a repeat visit for another movie you'll receive an exclusive discount bringing each ticket to just £7.50 after your first visit. You can book your discounted movie upon arrival or after your movie has finished, but it must be done at the time of visit.
