Trylon Cinema Theater Rental

Host your own screening at the Trylon!

The Trylon is available for rental on some Thursday evenings and Saturday afternoons. With a limited number of rental slots available we recommend booking reservations well in advance.

PRICING:

$240/hr for the time the theater is open to you or your guests.

GUIDELINES:

The minimum rental is $480 for two hours. It’s necessary to allow at least 45 minutes for guests to arrive/depart. Each screening will accommodate a maximum of 90 people.

The Trylon Cinema is best suited for projection of a DCP file (2K or 4K, and provided on an NTFS external USB drive or downloaded from filemail.com or wetransfer.com). We can also project from a UHD, Blu-Ray, or DVD, or DCP. For an additional fee of $125 we can prepare a DCP playback package from an MP4 file or project a 35mm film print (although the cost to rent and ship a film print is substantial). Streaming is not an option. Technical contact: barry@trylon.org.

If you’d like to sell tickets to the public, our processing charge is $1/ticket, with a $75 set-up fee. The fee covers inclusion in our weekly showtimes email as well. We do not provide additional marketing support (like social media posts) for rental screenings. Public screenings require permission from the film’s owner, and we can help arrange permission for a fee.

Outside food is not permitted at the Trylon Cinema. Movie theater concessions are available, with popcorn, candy, and beverages offered with prices between $2 and $5 (cash only, with an ATM on site). The Trylon is not licensed to serve alcohol.

We require payment in full to reserve a rental slot. Rental cancellations receive a 50% refund.
