July 6th

The IFI is currently undergoing an exciting major redevelopment of its landmark Old Quaker Meeting House site to create a third cinema in addition to the existing two cinemas, a major overhaul of the existing public areas, and significant development of the IFI’s Irish Film Archive research facilities.

The sixty-seat Cinema 3 will be fully equipped with the latest digital projection technology and will also be equipped to screen 16mm films and a range of other formats. The public areas of the IFI are being renovated and modernized with brand new washroom facilities, film shop, and improved box office and information provision.

This cinema expansion and redevelopment marks an exciting point in the IFI’s history. Since opening in 1992 the IFI has brought the best of film culture to audiences in Ireland and this development will allow to us to broaden the scope and depth of our programme as well as introducing new audiences to the IFI’s Irish Film Archive which is one of Ireland’s most important cultural resources.

We apologise for any convenience the redevelopment may cause our customers but we hope you agree that it will all be worth it as the IFI moves into its next exciting phase.

From 6pm Monday-Friday
From 2pm Saturdays
All day Sundays
