Budget-Friendly Cinema Experience: Bonn Cinemas at Kinofest for Five Euros
The weekend of September 7th to 8th brings back the opportunity for movie enthusiasts in Bonn to enjoy a cinematic experience for just five euros. The Kinofest 2024 is set to delight audiences once again, with several Bonn cinemas participating in the event and offering a range of film highlights.
Woki Cinema: A Bonn Favorite
Located at Bertha-von-Suttner-Platz, the Woki Cinema is a beloved spot for many residents of Bonn. Playing a vital role in the development of the Kinofest, inspired by the French event „Fête du cinéma,“ the Woki Cinema is committed to providing a memorable experience for moviegoers. According to the operators, Tobias Kraemer and Vincent Bresser, the goal is to create a recurring event that becomes a staple in people’s calendars.
During the Kinofest, the Woki Cinema will not only showcase new releases but also introduce some classic films that have been absent from the big screen for a while. The complete program, including all featured films, will be unveiled on September 2nd. Additionally, the cinema will host popular Sneak Previews during the festival, offering audiences a chance to watch films before their official release date. With special giveaways planned for the Kinofest, attendees are in for a treat.
Expect a diverse lineup of films at the Woki Cinema during the Kinofest weekend. The Disney Interactive Cinema, featuring beloved Disney characters engaging with young audiences through interactive activities, is sure to create a lively atmosphere and entertain families.
Sternkino (CineStar): A Cinematic Celebration
Situated at the Marktplatz, the Sternkino, also known as CineStar, is another venue participating in the Kinofest. Günther von Schenck, the operator, praised the event for its ability to celebrate the essence of cinema and its audience. Highlighting the cultural and social significance of cinemas, von Schenck emphasized the importance of such events in fostering community engagement.
During the Kinofest, the Sternkino will screen the thriller „The Crow“ on September 7th and present previews of „Super Wings: Maximum Speed“ on both days. Other featured films include „Deadpool & Wolverine,“ „Despicable Me 3,“ „Inside Out 2,“ and „Alien: Romulus.“ In addition to film screenings, the Sternlichtspiele Bonn will host a Disney Channel Interactive Cinema program, offering children a blend of entertainment and interactive experiences.
Kinopolis Bad Godesberg: A Cinematic Treat
Joining the lineup for the Kinofest is Kinopolis in Bad Godesberg. With early ticket sales already underway, the cinema offers a special deal where patrons can enjoy a movie meal by adding a matching amount to their five-euro ticket purchase.
One of the anticipated film highlights is the thriller „The Crow,“ set for a preview screening. For young movie fans, Kinopolis will present a „Disney Channel“ Interactive Cinema program on September 7th and 8th, featuring a range of engaging activities alongside film screenings.
Unfortunately, the Rex and Filmbühne cinemas in Beuel and Endenich are not part of this year’s Kinofest lineup. Dieter Hertel, the operator, explained that the multiplex cinemas can offset the reduced ticket prices with increased ancillary revenue, making it more financially viable for them to participate in such events. However, cinephiles can explore the full program for the Kinofest on the individual cinema websites.
With a variety of films, interactive experiences, and affordable ticket prices, the Kinofest promises an exciting weekend for movie lovers in Bonn. Don’t miss out on this budget-friendly cinematic celebration!
