THE NORTH WEST AV DAY

Nestled in the heart of Leigh, Lancashire, the Film Factory is a boutique cinema that punches well above its weight. Rather like a high-end home cinema experience, it offers an intimate yet luxurious viewing experience, each seat plush and inviting.

The projection facilities are nothing short of cinematic: true 4K resolution paired with 7.1 Dolby Digital Surround Sound ensures that every AV is delivered with breathtaking clarity. Whether you're screening a polished production or debating a new AV sequence, this venue elevates the experience to professional heights.
