You asked, we listened.

We’re recreating our popular opening night event from this year's Tyne Valley Film Festival for our audience that missed out the first time around.

Celebrate the 30th anniversary of Mark Herman’s award-winning comedy, starring Ewan McGregor, Pete Postlethwaite and Tara Fitzgerald, filmed entirely on location in Yorkshire.

Before the film Hexham Brass will get us in the right mood with a stunning set of brass arrangements in The Forum auditorium.

Hexham Brass - 7pm

Brassed Off - 7:30pm

Set on a remote Scottish island, two siblings survive by hunting seabirds, retelling the stories of their ancestors, and defending the isle from dreaded ‘Incomers’. Their world is upended with the arrival of an awkward council worker who has come to uproot them from their homeland.

An eccentric Scottish comedy-drama, called a “near-flawless modern fable” by critics.
