RentalsWhile the main screens at the Coolidge are rarely available due to our regular schedule of programs and feature films, we do offer private rentals of our Video Screening Room and MiniMax. These versatile exhibition spaces are perfect for film premieres, private parties, classes and film clubs. Video Screening Room
A private party rental gives you the room to yourself for the block of time you reserve (this does not include space in the upper lobby, only in the Screening Room). You provide the film and we show you how to run it yourself with our very simple press-and-play projection system. Other fees apply for a dedicated projectionist or staff member to help you run the show. There is ample space at the front of the room for a conference table and set-up for snacks. Available hours and rental dates vary depending upon our programming, and the room is very popular. We recommend contacting us to plan your event up to three months in advance (though feel free to ask for whenever you need and we'll let you know what is available). Rentals are for a two-hour block that must fit within our feature film showtime grid. Contact us for details. Screening room rentals are run by the renter with a brief training session on how to use our equipment before the show. However, a dedicated staff person for complex program set-up can be provided at an additional charge. The Gold Screen
Rent the Gold Screen and invite your guests to join you for an intimate party "at the movies" - be it a "gala" premiere of your own home videos, a gathering of friends to watch your favorite live TV events, films or TV episodes on hi-def Blu-Ray or DVD, a business meeting of film group, or an adult or children's birthday celebration. The Gold Screen is available for afternoon and evening rentals Sunday-Thursday. Children's Birthday Parties
Both rooms feature digital projection in hi-def Blu-Ray or DVD. For private parties you can show any film on these formats. You bring the disc - we provide your own theatre. Additionally, each room has a space to accommodate a table for cake, food, presents, etc. Your Birthday Party rental includes a tech assistant to help you set up for the party, handle technical needs, and assist with the clean up. We do not provide chaperones for the children, the parents or other adult supervisor must be on hand. We can provide extra time for setup and cleanup for your party.
