Please see the Dabbers Doggie Bingo Policy below:
This policy concerns pet dogs; it does not apply to assistance dogs.
At selected shows, which will be clearly advertised as such, Dabbers Social Bingo permits dog owners to bring their dogs with them into the venue (one dog per adult).
It is essential that this policy does not affect the enjoyment of other customers or create hazards for them, our staff or our premises.
Should a dog become unruly or adversely affect the enjoyment of others, the Manager needs to intervene and, if necessary, request that the owner and the dog leave the premises. No refund will be offered.
Dog owners are expected to adhere to the venue rules, and these should be brought to their attention.
If there are persistent and unresolved problems, Dog-friendly Bingo will be suspended at the Manager’s discretion.
To ensure that customers who may not wish to play bingo when dogs are present are fully aware of which show they are booking, all Dog-friendly Bingo must be clearly advertised as such, both in advance and again when customers are purchasing tickets at the box office.
To protect the furniture, all owners are to be issued with a fleece blanket to cover the seat used by the dog or to use as a rug if the dog sits on the floor. When these are returned after the show, they must be laundered separately from any other washing (e.g. tea towels used in the cafe). The venue must be fully cleaned after a dog session to remove dog hairs etc. which may affect subsequent customers.
During the shows, the venue will provide bowls of water around the premises. Dogs should not be fed in the venue, though owners may provide small treats. Owners are encouraged to take their dogs outside during the show intervals and are responsible for any waste outside of the venue. If a dog fouls inside the premises, the procedure for ‘cleaning up bodily fluids’ is to be implemented; the owner can be encouraged to assist.
The control measures as detailed in the Dog-Friendly Bingo risk assessment must be in place. If any of the controls are not in place, the shows cannot be offered until such time as they are.
While dogs are welcomed into the venue, they are not allowed in designated areas around the bar or kitchen areas or any back-of-house areas.
To assist the venue in the smooth running of the show, owners must keep dogs on a lead when in the venue, not leave dogs unattended and must not tether dogs to any Dabbers Social Bingo furniture or property.
The Muppet Christmas Carol - Dog-friendly Cinema Picturehouse Bromley December 2021 | This December Picturehouse Bromley invite you and your dogs to a special screening
The Muppets tell their version of an old classic and reimagine Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol by adding a hilarious and heartfelt touch of Muppet magic: Ebeneezer Scrooge (Michael Caine) is a wicked, cold-hearted moneylender, angered by the Christmas spirit of his colleague Bob Cratchit (played by Kermit the Frog) and those around him. However, the arrival of the ghosts of Christmases Past, Present and Future, teach him to embrace the warmth and goodwill that comes with Christmas time. The Muppet Christmas Carol is a funny and heartwarming film for all the family (including the dog).
Dog-friendly Cinema Picturehouse Bromley December Dog Policy
The Muppet Christmas Carol is a dog-friendly screening – customers are welcome to bring their well-behaved dogs into the cinema for this special screening and you’re welcome to come along without a dog too). If you’re attending with your dog, please note the following:
You’ll be issued with a fleece blanket to cover the seat used by the dog or to use as a rug if the dog sits on the floor.
During the screenings, we will provide bowls of water around the screen.
We will leave lighting levels a little higher than usual during the screening and lower the volume of the soundtrack.
Please be aware that we reduce capacity when offering dog-friendly cinema screenings, so there may be fewer tickets than usual.
Dogs are limited to one dog to one adult.
Dog-friendly Cinema Picturehouse Bromley Tickets are £9.99 (Adult) to see The Muppet Christmas Carol.
