Kelowna Film Society

Our films are on Wednesdays at 4 pm and 7 pm at the Orchard Plaza Cinema. The address of the theater is #160 - 1876 Cooper Road, Kelowna. From mid April to late May, our films are at 6:30 PM at Landmark Grand 10, #110 948 McCurdy Rd, Kelowna.  Films start promptly; no trailers. Admission is $10.00. Ticket sales are on line only using the Eventbrite platform, with reserved seating. For more information about ticket purchase, please go to our Tickets page. There are NO TICKET SALES AT THE DOOR.

The prestigious Toronto International Film Festival has been the society’s main source of powerful offerings from the world of cinema, including foreign language offerings, Canadian films, hard-to-find independent films, quality documentaries, as well as crowd-pleasing comedies, dramas and the occasional block-buster.

Special Needs? A few wheelchair space only and wheelchair companion seats are available every showing. Please note that the wheelchair space is not a seat. You will see these special tickets and seats in the ticket purchase process.

How to Join? Just buy a ticket. When you purchase a ticket to one of our shows, you join the Kelowna Film Society at the same time. Membership is included in the ticket price. Membership is limited to persons who are 18 years of age or over.

Why is your KFS Membership Important? We want the flexibility to show non-classified or un-rated films. Membership is how we do that. As a non-profit cultural organization, Kelowna Film Society has been granted an exemption under section 4 of the Motion Picture Act. This exemption allows us to screen films which have not yet been classified by Consumer Protection BC. When buying tickets, you will be asked for each attendee's name. That makes them members. Kelowna Film Society strives to ensure all films screened are current (within 2 years old), distributed by a Canadian distributor, and are less than 2 hours in length. Information on the films we have presented is available at the Letterbox site.

What happens to funds remaining? The Kelowna Film Society offers scholarships or bursaries each year in support of students in film programs. Similar support may also be available for local film projects. Please click our Scholarship and Bursary page for details about these talented individuals. Our Scholarship & Bursary page will provide you with information about the scholarship/bursary/film project support application procedure and eligibility requirements.

Please feel free to contact us if you are interested in helping out or have any concerns or questions.
