How much is an umbrella license for movies?
Movie licensing pricing can range from $300 to $2,000+ depending on a number of factors. Some factors affecting the licensing price can include the number of people in attendance, location, application, revenue generated from ticket sales, and the film being displayed.
Can you charge to show a movie?
You certainly are free to watch the movie yourself, but, beyond that, your rights are very limited by law. In particular, you do not have the right to show the movie to “the public.” In most cases, doing that requires a separate “public performance” license from the copyright owner.
Can a non profit show a movie?
It’s important to note that your nonprofit cannot use a board member’s copy of a movie or television show, or use Netflix, Hulu, or another streaming account to show movies or shows, as those are for personal use only, not business. Because your nonprofit is hosting a business event, it will need a business license.
How do I get a film Licence for my event?
You can get film licences from companies such as Filmbank. They can also be obtained directly from distributors such as the British Film Institute (BFI) or the copyright owner. Ensure that the location of your film screening is easily accessible for the majority of guests.

While directors and producers have the last word when it comes to the movies you see in theaters, feedback and criticism from test screenings can go along way in determining how those movies are presented to the general public. Sometimes, audience feedback caused significant changes. 1. Goodfellas
How far in advance should you promote your film screening event?
Remember this is the time to tell people why attending your film screening event is better than watching a film at home. Most people need a fair bit of notice before they can commit to an event so promoting at least three weeks in advance is a good rule of thumb.
