The Peckham and Nunhead Free Film Festival returns from 4 to 13 September with free cinema, workshops and community screenings in unusual local venues.

What to expect

The published programme ranges from Blue Velvet, Moonlight and Human Traffic to Paddington 2, A Bug’s Life, short films and practical workshops. That makes it suitable for different audiences, but not every title is family-friendly.

Plan the screening, not just the film

Check the individual page for the venue, certificate, start time and whether a reservation is required. Outdoor events can change with the weather; popular indoor screenings can fill before the advertised start.

Useful questions

Why is this one calendar listing?
The screenings form one local festival and share an official programme. A single guide avoids flooding the agenda with separate thin pages while still giving users every current film link.
Are tickets needed?
Rules differ by screening. Use the official programme and follow the entry instructions for your chosen event.
Is it suitable for children?
Some films are, including family titles, but always check the certificate and event notes.
