For "best agers" aged 60 and over and those who want to become one, there will be special movie afternoons from September as part of the "Seniorenkino". The idea for this goes back to an initiative of the Hof Seniors' Council, which launched the film series together with the Seniors' Representative and in cooperation with the Central Kino Hof.

Admission is from 14:00 and the films start at 14:30 (without advertising in advance).

In addition to selected films, the special feature of the senior citizens' cinema is that visitors can enjoy a coffee and a croissant at the beginning and have time for a cozy chat in the cinema. In addition, members of the Seniors' Council are available as contact persons on the movie afternoons.

Admission is 8 euros including coffee and croissant.

Access to the movie theater is on the first floor.

Please register with Central-Kino Hof. However, last-minute visitors can also come spontaneously.

Organizers: City of Hof, Seniors' Council, Central-Kino Hof

With the kind support of: Hof Hospital Foundation and Sparkasse Hochfranken
