Teams we supply
Six teams for the foyer and beyond.
Cinema shifts are short and cluster around show times, mostly evenings, weekends and opening nights.
Every role here comes from our promotional staff pool; tours and chain-wide campaigns come with a campaign lead.
Foyer brand teams
Staff on an approved stand or walking the foyer talk to ticket holders about your offer and hand out vouchers or printed deals before they go in.
Screening sampling teams
Cinema sampling at the screen door or along the queue: staff hand out snacks, drinks or ice cream that people can take in and enjoy during the film. Food hygiene certificates on request.
Character performers
A performer in your character costume poses for photos with families in the foyer, with a chaperone managing the queue. More on our costume characters.
Premiere and launch teams
Film premiere staff for opening nights and launch screenings. They run the guest list and arrivals, manage the queue outside the doors and hand out branded items as guests arrive.
Open-air screening teams
Outdoor cinema staff for a partner brand's stand or bar at screenings in parks and grounds, with the same faces across a run of dates where you want them.
Film festival event staff
Event staff, hosts and an event manager for film festivals and screening events. They keep sessions, panels and guest timings on schedule.
Why brands book us for cinemas
Briefed on the film, timed to the show.
Right to work and ID checked for every person. Employer's and Public Liability cover on every booking. DBS checks on request for family screenings.
Your product, the film or campaign it ties to, the audience for each screening and the cinema's rules on where staff can stand.
We handle PAYE, National Insurance and HR in-house for every evening and weekend shift.
Geo-tagged check-ins confirm the team is in place before the first show. Attendance shows live through the evening, and our 24/7 support line is answered day and night while your shifts run.
Where we fit
The cinema sells the space, we staff it.
The useful moments in a cinema are short and predictable: the wait in the foyer, the queue at the screen door, the walk out when the credits roll. People are relaxed, often in groups, and happy to try something they can take in with them.
You agree the space and the activity with the cinema or screening operator. We supply the people, briefed on your brand, the film tie-in if there is one, and the show times, so every shift is built around the screenings that matter.

Buyer questions
Cinema promotions, timings and tours: your questions.
Who books the space in the cinema?
The brand or its agency, through the cinema chain's partnerships or advertising team, or the organiser of an outdoor screening. Once the space is agreed, we staff it and work to the venue's rules.
When do cinema shifts run?
Around show times: normally from before the first evening screening to just after the last one starts, with longer days at weekends and on opening dates. Shifts can be split to cover two peaks.
Can staff sample food and drink in a cinema?
Where the cinema allows it. Some chains restrict outside food and drink, so check the terms of your partnership. Staff hold food hygiene certificates on request.
Can you add a costumed character?
Yes. We supply performers to wear your character costume, with a chaperone, for photo moments in the foyer. The costume itself comes from the brand or distributor.
Can one booking cover several cinemas or a whole chain?
Yes. We staff each site from the nearest of our 40 hubs, with one lead keeping the brief and timings the same everywhere. Nearby sites can sometimes share staff across different show times.
Do you staff open-air cinema tours?
Yes. We can staff each date locally, or one touring team can cover the whole route if you'd prefer the same faces; we'll cost both ways.
Do you supply stands, screens or equipment?
No. The brand, the cinema or the screening organiser supplies the stand, screen and materials. We supply and manage the staff.
What drives the cost?
The number of sites and dates, headcount, shift lengths around show times, late finishes, transport and accommodation for touring dates and any costume or performer requirements. The quote sets out each line.
