Millennium Point has announced a new programme of film screenings, taking place throughout 2026 in its landmark Birmingham auditorium, home to the largest screen in the region.
The series begins on 15 May with a screening of Christopher Nolan’s Inception, the 2010 sci-fi thriller that has kept audiences debating its ending ever since its initial release. Further screenings include The Dark Knight Trilogy on 8 August, Labyrinth on 30 October, and a festive double bill of The Polar Express with a Santa visit on 13 December.
The Batman Trilogy screening carries particular significance for Millennium Point. In 2008, the venue hosted one of Birmingham’s most talked-about cinema events when The Dark Knight screened on its IMAX, drawing audiences who still talk about it to this day! The August event is a chance to relive that, and to introduce it to a new generation of fans.
All screenings take place in the Millennium Point auditorium, which has all the scale and atmosphere of a serious cinema venue along with the flexibility to host something a little different.
JP Haslam, AV Technical Co-ordinator at Millennium Point, said: “The auditorium was built to make an impact. The screen size and the sound setup genuinely change how you experience a film, and that’s what these events are designed around. These are films that deserve that treatment.”
Abbie Vlahakis, CEO of Millennium Point, said: “This is about giving people in Birmingham a reason to come together around film. We have one of the best screens in the region and we want people to use it. Whether you’re a lifelong film fan or just looking for a great night out, there’s something in this programme for you.”
Tickets for Inception on 15 May are £12, or £10 for students. The bar opens at 6:45pm and the film begins at 7:30pm with no adverts.
