Delicious food!  Asian duck breast, house smoked lamb, black bean and kumara rosti, fish of the day, and of course some southern fried chicken. It is concise, fresh and very tasty. There is also a selection of three different cheese boards with local Waimata Cheese for social nibbles so there are plenty of options to mix up your Troff dining experience. Book yourself a table on 027 590 2117. Here is the menu in full: http://www.domecinema.co.nz/our-food/

Two great docos starting next week. Anne Frank: Parallel Stories is presented by Helen Mirren as she retraces Anne’s life through the pages of her remarkable and enlightening diary, and through the lives of five woman who, as teenage girls, were also deported to concentration camps but escaped the Holocaust. This is a moving and timely ode to the strength of the human spirit in the face of great adversity – and the importance of keeping memory and history alive for future generations - so important - I'm taking a teenager along!

Hillary: Ocean to Sky uses footage of Hillary's most filmed adventure and one Sir Edmond considered his greatest - boating through India's River Ganges in its entirety. Occuring two years after the tragic death of his wife and youngest daughter in an air crash, for Sir Ed and his son Peter, it was also a healing journey that, in fact, almost ended tragically with the near death and rescue of Sir Ed himself.

Summer seems to be here, come and enjoy our garden bar open from 5pm from Wednesday through to Sunday.

Chin chin.

Two great docos starting this week: Anne Frank and Hillary: Ocean to Sky.

Such a valuable way to gain insight and learn about such a significant piece of world history.

Christmas Party

We're calling everything a Christmas party from now on! It's been a big year of ups and downs and we're ready to throw the towel in the air and boogie down.....

We've got three choice gigs before the end of the year and 5 new films and we want to show you a good time!

This Saturday the courtyard is coming to life in a musical cosmogony. The universe is delivering Subset B.C to the garden bar for another round of dark-groove cinematic bass. The dance floor will be polished and the Cherry tree will be filled with Mistletoe. Just a tenner on the door can you believe?!

And next Saturday we've got a Summer Session lineup that is going to get the house pumping - Early bird and general release tickets have sold out - there is one last ticket drop so get yours here if you want to come along https://www.tickettailor.com/events/limitlesstouring/316286

Here's whats coming to the movies: After the Wedding - a twisted tale set between New York and Calcutta. The Biggest Little Farm - the fun story of a couple on a mission to grow a sustainable farm. Happy Ending - a Danish romantic comedy that goes full circle! Ask Dr Ruth - the insightful story of America's first and most well known sex therapist. Mrs Lowry and Son - the story of one of England's most famous artists andhis life with his domineering mother.

We are happily accepting presents : ) and are quickly becoming delirious with thoughts of Santa and Christmas excess - come and join the party.

FAR OUT

Time for some classic cult cinema picked by the one and only, incredibly famous (or is that infamous) Dylan Haley! A round of applause for this months 1975 classic - Picnic at Hanging Rock. This eerie cliffhanger scores 95% on the Tomatometer scale - "Visually mesmerizing, Picnic at Hanging Rock is moody, unsettling, and enigmatic -- a masterpiece of Australian cinema and a major early triumph for director Peter Weir." Get in early kids, doors open at 6pm!

SUNDAY DINING. We're extending our dining to Sunday nights for summer. Starting from December 1st our Troff Menu will be available from 5-8pm on a lazy Sunday as well. Summery fresh plates with local ingredients to share or have all to yourself in the garden bar and dining room - bliss.

Anne Frank: Parallel Stories got a stunner of a review on stuff last week. Five stars no less, here's the link: https://www.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/film/film-reviews/117590664/anne-frank-parallel-stories-a-frank-reevaluation-that-feels-just-as-relevant-today As we've just remembered with our own Tuia 250, it is important to remember and make accessable to younger generations the histories and wrongs that have played out in the past. Come and check it out.

Our fans are spinning (not all of our fans are spinners) and most of our gigs have moved to the Garden Bar - come and enjoy some balmy summer fun with us at the Dome.

And a happy New Year......

Yay 2020 the year of awesomeness is upon us!

We've got some new films we'd like to share with you:

Happy New Year Colin Burstead - a fabulous black comedy about the dynamics of the traditional family get together. We've all got different family recipes but often with the same characters. Have a laugh at someone else's expense as we witness Colin's attempt to throw a flashy New Years party at a rented grand manor. This films has great reviews and is the perfect seasonal flick!

Marianne and Leonard: Words of Love is a beautiful yet tragic love story between Leonard Cohen and his Norwegian muse Marianne Ihlen. Their love began on the idyllic Greek island of Hydra in 1960 as part of a bohemian community of foreign artists, writers and musicians. The film follows their relationship from the early days on Hydra, a humble time of ‘free love’ and open marriage, to how their love evolved when Leonard became a successful musician. They died three months apart.

The Peanut Butter Falcon is a lovely film about Zak, a Down syndrome person who runs away from his nursing home in North Carolina to chase his dream of becoming a professional wrestler. The film was conceived while the directors were volunteering at an organization for people with disabilities where they met Zack Gottsagen, an actor with Down syndrome who always wanted to star in a movie. And thus, the tale of “The Peanut Butter Falcon” was born. Pretty beautiful movie.

Roxane is a chicken. From the directors of The Intouchables Roxane is a story of agriculture, bankruptcy, chickens, theatre and youtube - it is a hilarious combination of events from these seasoned movie makers. If you've seen The Intouchables you will be coming to this - I can't wait!

Ahhhh 2020 we love you x

Shizzle on the sizzle

Wooooh it's hot! It is a matter of survival on these 30 something degree days isn't it - but it's certainly helped with cool refreshments and delicious tubs of Dome icecream.

The Queens are here for a Friday/Saturday double banger. Gender illusionist extraordinaires, join Joanne, Mia, Amanduh, and Spankie for a night of big hair, gorgeous gowns, dance, and risque comedy. Tickets are $40 from Aviary or on the door.

Beats starts this Thursday - following two Irish lads through the beginning of rave culture - this will take many of you back in time and is a great coming of age story. I can't wait to park up and watch vicariously relaxing with my cool lager.

Peanut Butter Falcon sessions are going strong - certainly not as crazy as the first couple of weeks but still a good idea to book. Frida: Viva la Vida is also proving popular so book your parties in with a quick text to 027 590 2117.

There is heaps coming up - Valentines, Latina Dance, Ocean Film Tour, Aotearoa Surf Film Festival and much more - check out our facebook page for all our events or go to our website for full details.

Looking through the lens

The late Peter Peryer is one of New Zealand's most respected and treasured photographers and I have to say, my favourite. His famous photo 'Dead Steer' is a prominant part of New Zealand's visual history. We have just three screenings of a documentary about the life and work of this gentle, charming man, who dedicated his life to his artform. A film for art and culture lovers alike, and an opportunity to see a great artist in action.

Google has been a busy little storm of activity recently, helping visitors find the best of the best in our region. Thanks for all the super reviews folks - we wanted to share some of the snippets from fresh visitor eyes - "personality in spades", "great food and great service", "an oasis in Gisborne", "staff are caring, helpful, and quirky", "love this place". Bring your visitors down for a unique taste of the Dome.

Check out the latest summer additions to our Troff Menu - mussels and kamo kamo and more - yum! Here's the latest menu https://www.domecinema.co.nz/our-food/ Book your table by texting 027 590 2117 to avoid disappointment in the summer season. Easy peasey.

Fruit Salad

It's an all you can eat fruit salad of culture over the next couple of weeks starting with Jamaica's first ever film The Harder They Come. The film tells the semi-autographical story of a country boy (played by reggae legend Jimmy Cliff) coming to the big city to find his fortune in the music industry yet ends up having to hustle outside of the law. One night only - FAR OUT Film Night!

The legend of Spains most popular artist Frida Kahlo is explored in Viva La Vida starting on Thursday. Filled with the story of her life, her tragedies and loves, this is a great look into an enigmatic figure that has inspired many, many people.

David Bowie's greatest hits are played live this Saturday with the Absolute Bowie Tribute band from London. There will only ever be one Bowie, but this group ain't bad! Check out their showreel here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6E8sD_cAUxE

New movie Beats starts next week taking us deep into the 90's to the birth of the Rave in Scotland. Great fun and a reminisce for many of us!

And last but not least the Queens are coming out East with their outrageous show of music, dance and comedy. Friday and Saturday shows - tickets $40 from Aviary or on the door.

Fruit salad served with thick cream and a smile : ) delicious.

Exotic folk

Quebecois five-piece folk outfit Rosier are making waves at the Dome this Wednesday with their genre-bending music that merges elements of traditional folk, indie, jazz, pop and bluegrass. These guys bring contemporary and traditional together in a modern, alternative way - folk for cool kids. For just 20 bucks you will get a glimpse of a talented and unique band that has travelled halfway around the world to show you their stuff!

We're on a bit of an arty streak with one more showing of Peter Peryer: the Art of Seeing - don't miss this great story of his life, creative process and career. Then next week we have Frida: Viva La Vida which dives into the life and works of Mexico's most loved artist and her art of opposites and dualism - pain and pleasure, darkness and light, moon and sun, life in death and death in life.

FAR OUT film night is kicking off for the year with a massive film next Tuesday the 28th - The Harder They Come, with Jimmy Cliff. Filled with the colours and sounds of Jamaica and reggae music we know this one is going to be popular so get down here early. Doors open at 6pm.

Hey we've also got James Peden, the funkiest Melbourne synth pop artist coming to the Garden Bar this Saturday bringing his music and performance show - this is free entry so get in early and park up with some dishes off our menu and make a night of it.

To book in for a beanbag or a dining table text us on 027 590 2117 to avoid disappointment. Text us your details and we'll pop you down in our book.

Looking forward to it!

Mega

Look at that fat schedule below!

Biggest and loudest this week is the Aotearoa Surf Film Fest - get your tickets for this Friday - always popular and destined to sell out. Check out the trailers for each main feature below and here is the ticket link https://asff.co.nz/

There are a couple of simmering gems this week which are not to be missed if they're your thing......

Pangaea this Saturday is very different from anything we've seen at the Dome. The trio perform an exciting fusion of Indian and Western musical styles, bringing ancient art forms into the 21st century and blending classical instruments with modern songs. Flick through this youtube video and have a look at the calibre of artist we have here people! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjlDrxeMZAg Tickets are $20 from here https://www.undertheradar.co.nz/gig/69920/Pangaea.utr how easy is that?

La Belle Epoque, starting this Thursday, is a twisted tale of dreams literally coming true - for a moment anyway. "A twinkling daydream that will evoke memories of Amelie, La Belle Epoque is your next must-see cinematic experience" James Croot, Stuff. All rave reviews for this alternative French story so don't miss it. Gizzy always loves a good French tale!

And next week locking in our 1 year anniversary of FAR OUT Film Night with a double screening - oh yes.......check out the trailers below - it's gonna be a party!

Grab some or all of our mega offering over the coming weeks. You won't be disappointed.

Old Friends

It is really like seeing old friends again - FAR OUT Film Night last week, Blues Night this Tuesday. Slowly, slowly everything is seeping back to normality - still hand washing with fingers crossed though.

In fact, we have our first live music gig this Saturday, and who better to start with than a bonfide bunch of East Coast musos! Supreme Brother Sound is made up of Phil Tarawa, Josh Te Kahu, Guy Aupouri, Cornz Houkamau, and Lawrence Rangi. We are proud to say Saturday is their debut, grounded in roots, rock soul, funk and pacific RnB, their sound is smooth and polished. Presales $10 from Aviary or the Dome Bar, or $15 on the door.

You may have noticed we don''t have many double screenings these days. A single session means we don''t have to rush and we can take our time with our lovely customers. It does mean though that films move through here with less screenings so don''t be tardy if there is something you want to see. Book yourself in.

Oh and here is how to do that:

Wahine on Waves

It is popular theme in our town and we are proud to be part of a very limited premiere release of She is the Ocean. Brought to you on behalf of Surf Aid, an international charity with its roots in Gisborne, funds from these screenings will go towards Surf Aids education programs. Learn more about their wonderful work here https://surfaid.org/

Steelers starts this Wednesday. "A LO-FI PORTRAIT WITH A WONDERFULLY BIG HEART." - Steph Walker, NZIFF. If you love a quirky heartwarming doco this is it! Very short season so get in quick.

A Son starts Friday. A gripping story set in Tunisia that will take you to the brink of parental disaster. This is a very fine piece of cinema, it has a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and is highly recommended. A must see for cinephiles.

Next week the gorgeous Lucky Grandma starts. "Outrageously funny, unquestionably cool" the reviews are great for this one too and you will be guaranteed a good time watching Grandma unwittingly become involved in the middle of a Chinatown gang war!

New flavours are brewing in preparation of our Troff summer menu - come and enjoy the last weeks of our spring dishes before it''s too late.

Romantic

Sometimes a movie comes left of centre and everyone wants to see it - Romantic Road is one of those and we''ve done a reshuffle of the schedule to fit more sessions in so you can all come and see it! The film was recommended to us from a Dome friend in Australia who said it will go down well - indeed it has so thanks for the heads up!

This weeks FAR OUT! Film Night continues the roll of classic cults with Inside Llewyn Davis by the Coen Brothers from 2013 - you won''t be disappointed.

So second time lucky with the 70''s date! The Sensational 70''s is now on September 5th. Looking forward to some incredible outfits now you''ve had a bit of extra time to plan! If you can''t make the new date, or if you''re fishing for the chance of getting a ticket text 027 5368096 to get organised. James is happy to offer refunds to those that need them.

Looking ahead we''ve got our favourite band Sea Mouse heading our way early September and excitingly, we''ve just secured the very sexy and very rock''n''roll Labretta and The Motel 6 in December! Have a sneaky peek https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=Yg84P3ijL8g&feature=emb_logo

Bookings recommended due to restricted numbers, Dome level 2 etiquette will be rewarded with wonderful service.

Oh Boy!

What a week! Our hearts have been in our throats teetering on the edge of lockdown abyss, it has not been pleasant as I''m sure you can all relate to different degrees.

Level 2 is pretty much fine with us - sadly the 70''s night couldn''t go ahead, too many ragers, but we have rescheduled to the 29th - and we are forging ahead with our super fine level 2 service, open and ready.

Tables and beanbags have been spaced accordingly, you will be shown to your tables or seats on arrival, from where you will be served your every desire. Kinda flash if it were for something other than the evil Covid. Our thoughts are with Auckland who are battling it out, hard tmes indeed.

So films and dining as usual. Pending the end of level 2, the 70''s night is back on, and our favourite band Sea Mouse have just confirmed an early September gig - yes a gig with original music - I can feel you perking up!

Thanks so much for your ongoing support Dome friends - where would we be without you.

Bookings recommended due to restricted numbers.

Level 2 muddling.....

Okay so Level 2 is playing a bit of havoc - no Blues this week unfortunately and as for the 70''s night, well it will happen but good things take time! Please hold on to your tickets or text James if you want a refund 027 536 8096. We will announce a new date further down the track.

In the meantime we thought with all this 70''s anticipation ready to boil over we''d celebrate with one of the biggest 70''s disco films of all time, Saturday Night Fever! Such an amazing sound track, and I bet you''ve all forgotten how arrogant and sexy Tony (John Travolta) was back then! Come and have a beanbag party, dress up if you want, whoop it up and boogie down to the lights of the flashing dance floor and disco inferno! Bookings advised - 6pm and 8pm screenings.

Spring is springing which means we are phasing is some lighter fare on our Troff Menu - this week we will have a few new dishes - Meatballs with Tomato Kasundi and Gremolata, Smoked Mackeral + Horseradish Pate with Dill Pickles. And a couple of mains teasers.....Lamb Rump, Fried Chicken and the return of the Rosti! Pudding is Key Lime Pie!!!!

We have a special film, The Girl on the Bridge - screening on Suicide Prevention Day next week and again during Mental Health Awareness Week on Sept 23rd. "In the increasing public discourse on mental health, Leanne Pooley's inspiring and fearless documentary tracks an extraordinary young woman's journey from suicide survivor to advocate for those struggling. The fact it leaves you hopeful and with tangible advice makes it vital viewing." Whanau Marama.

Quietly excited on the inside for Sea Mouse next week. A good slap of Blues infused Rock around the chops is just what the doc ordered. AND we''ve just got wind, our favourite good time local band Set Waves is playing support on the night! Dream team.

Bookings, booking, we love bookings. Thank you so much for your continued support of the Dome.

For Your Pleasure

We''re all about pleasure here at the Dome, multiple levels of pleasure - entertainment, service, atmosphere, delicious treats and thirst quenching refreshments.

It''s our last FAR OUT! event for the year, get your final fix of cult quirkiness with Private Property from 1960. This film lasted about a week until it was ripped off the screen for inappropriate content. My goodness - come and see what the fuss was about and get the 2020 sign off from our famous Dylan Haley.

We''ve got a dance film for contemporary dance lovers starting next week following the long career of Merce Cunningham. Incredible costumes and mesmerising dance make this a treat to the senses. Don''t miss this - it will be a short season!

Charlatan, also starting next week, is "A rich psychological puzzle". This one scores 100% on Rotten Tomatoes and will be well worth a look.

Sea Mouse, a genus of fluffy sea worm and one of our favourite Dome bands, is here next weekend. Get your tickets for one of our last great gigs for 2020. Perfect timing for a festive blow out. Tickets from here - https://www.undertheradar.co.nz/ticket/13296/Sea-Mouse.utr

Our new menu is phasing in this week - look out for the menu on our sociables and book your mates in for a Crissy pleasure session. Our bar is open for drinks in the garden bar from 5pm, Wednesday onwards, with pizza, small and large plates of food to enjoy.

Book yourself in before it''s too late!

November!

Just as well, there is actually way too much going on in this town in October. Why do we do it all in just 4 weeks of the year? I don''t know.

Anyway good to have you back. The Mystery of Henri Pick is one of our most popular films of late, audience numbers are gaining momentum.

The Swallows of Kabul is an artistic journey. An adaption of the novel of the same name, the animation takes us on a journey no camera could match. A sombre story, but one that shows humanity in the face of adversity. This film comes highly recommended.

An unlikely combo - the first ever gay rugby team is featured in the charming doco Steelers. "A LO-FI PORTRAIT WITH A WONDERFULLY BIG HEART." - Steph Walker, New Zealand International Film Festival. A very short season for this one so get in quick.

Among only a handful of cinemas world wide the Dome proudly presents the premiere of She is the Ocean next week. This is brought to you by the incredible team at Surf Aid and all proceeds on the night will go towards their international support programs.

Enjoy the late Spring hum of November.

See you here for a good time.

Thanks

We thought it was time for another round of gratitude - if all of you people hadn''t been so generous towards our Boosted campaign a while back we wouldn''t have been able to stay open - true fact!

If all you people hadn''t come back in force once lockdown was over we wouldn''t be open now. Some of you come for dinner every week - thank you. Some of you come to almost every movie - thank you. It makes you appreciate what you''ve got when it comes close to the edge.

So anyway - we''re coming to that FAR OUT! time of the month. Septembers pick takes us back to 1990 with Cry Baby, starring Johnny Depp at his seductive best, and Ricky Lake. Cool, silly and sexy - another great pick from the talented Mr Dylan Haley.

Cut Throat City starts this week. A gritty story about hard choices directed by Wu-Tangs RZA - his third film, critics believe Cut Throat City is where his directing talents comes into their own. A cool street story that delivers a punch.

Fans of Tom Sainsbury will be able to watch him nail his first movie lead in Dead, which starts next week. And the first of two Show Me Shorts screenings starts next Saturday.

Keep on booking folks - text 027 590 2117, or message us on facebook.

Boosted!

Wouldn''t quite say bumper boosted yet but we are adding a little bit more content every week and it''s so great to get back to a new kind of normal! We''re boosting to Friday and Saturday movies starting next week with another great film Burden starting next week.

We''re also talking Boosted because we are coming close to the end of our own boosted campaign #welovethedome. We are almost at our lifesaving goal with nearly 150 generous sponsors. The Save Our Venues team have now helped 30 venues get up and running to meet their targets and we are now so close. If you''d like to contribute please follow the link, or if you''ve already jumped on the bus you can still help us by sharing the link to your own channels. Thank you all so much for helping us keep the lights on - one day soon the music will be back!

https://www.boosted.org.nz/projects/we-love-the-dome

We''ve had a big response to The Assistant, with the first session selling out. Please book in if you''re set on a night out as we have limited screenings and limited seats - we''re not quite jamming ''em in yet!

Burden, starting next week, is another poignant and timely film. Based on true events it is another marker in the continuing and very real struggle America has with violent racial tension. Winning the Sundance Audience award this film is a significant story which will touch those who see it.

BOOK IN!

Late summer goods

Our latest Troff menu is out. It is petite and beautifully formed with vege, vegan and gluten free options for all you folk out there. Tempura vegetables on coconut rice is already a favourite, as is the Korean Fried Chicken and the Slow Braised Beef Brisket, mmmmmm. I just want to eat it all. You can see the full menu here http://www.domecinema.co.nz/our-food/ Dining is from Thursday to Sunday from 5pm - book in on 027 590 2117

Photograph starts this week and is described as an ''understated crowd-pleaser''. "A modern day, milder Mumbai version of When Harry Met Sally, Photograph is a beautiful portrait of friendship and breaking free of familial and societal expectations." James Croot, stuff.co.nz.

Saturday night we are hosting the Salty Siren''s Surf Festival with our first screening of the Women''s Adventure Film Tour. There will be prizes and speakers and good times - tickets for this first screening can be purchased as part of a festival package from Gisborne Boardriders but if you are just interested in the film we will be screening it again on Saturday 14th and Sunday 22nd.

And all you New Zealand music fans don''t forget Hamish Kilgour is back this Friday for another round of magnificent mayhem. He is bringing with him Emily Riordan who, if you missed her last time, has the voice of an angel. Musical royalty in a rolling stream of consciousness! Can you handle it?!

Enjoy these cooling late summer days with us in our garden bar - open from 5pm from Wednesday - chin chin!

Business as usual.

That might seem like a kind of banal title for an action packed month but it''s like business as usual..... like life before..... when we took a full plate of entertainment for granted!

We''ve got 3 live music nights, a 70''s dance party, and plenty of films coming through in August.

Blues Night is first up tomorrow night. If you''ve never been, you may be shocked when you discover a full house on a school night. With a casual but quality line-up of mostly local talent, you''ll find it''s a supportive place for musicians of all ages and stages and a darn good low-key option to get out of the house for.

Motel California are back with their extensive line up of Eagles classics this Friday - last year this sold out - there are many Eagles lovers among us - are you one of them? Tickets from https://www.eventfinda.co.nz/2020/motel-california-nz-eagles-tribute/gisborne

We had a call out from one of our Dome friends across the ditch - "Hey I''ve just seen this amazing film Romantic Road, it would be great at the Dome!" Say no more, it starts next week.

Bookings can be made for cinema beanbags or sofas and dining tables - here''s how:

Filled to the brim.

Yes we are filled to the brim with love and support from our community and our industry  - thank you so much to all of you that have chipped in, offered words of support and shared our #saveourvenues campaign. #WELOVETHEDOME reached a total of $19,660. A massive thanks to Save Our Venues NZ who are on target to raise $500,000 for 30 venues across the nation. And thanks to The Arts Foundation Future Fund who seed funded each of those 30 campaigns, including ours. The money we have raised will go into stacked up bills and will help bridge the gap as we slowly get back to offering a full schedule of events. It wont be going into flash cars, rebranding or sound gear, but at least we are open!

Burden starts this week and is another small marker of the long legacy of Americas racial inequality. This story is based on a true account from 1996 and is the turning of a white man away from the clan into the support of the black community. This is a timely film as the world rises up with the #blacklivesmatter movement - it''s content touches all corners of the globe. By the producers of The Dallas Buyers Club, Burden won the Sundance Audience Award in 2018. Check it out.

It''s the last week to see The Assistant as we make way for Love Sarah starting next week - trailers below.

#welovethedome

The Dome Bar is one of the shining jewels in Gisborne's crown. We've been closed for over six weeks now, treading water, biting our nails and staring into the abyss of an unknown slow trickle of life back to what once was.

We need to call on our Dome lovers, those of you who own a local stake in having such a cool place to come, those who have visited from afar and enjoyed our warm, quirky welcome, those of you that don't want to imagine life in Gisborne without The Dome.

Life in Gisborne without The Dome!

We can't let Covid 19 win this one!

Many small venues are facing similar dilemmas. These are the places where artists travel to play for you and me. Where New Zealand artists get to forge support for their talent. These venues are run on shoestring budgets by locals who are passionate about bringing culture to the small corners of the universe, while fostering the next musical generation of stars.

"How can we help?" you''ve been asking.  If, and only if, you have the ability to donate please do it now, a little or a lot, every piece of the puzzle will count. The second and equally important thing you can do is share the Boosted page among your networks and help us reach our community.

https://www.boosted.org.nz/projects/we-love-the-dome

Forward the link to this page through your own channels, use the hashtags #welovethedome #saveourvenues. Share the love.

We are very grateful to the movers and shakers of this nationwide Boosted campaign, Boosted LIVE presents #SAVEOURVENUES, supporting the music industry and the many small venues that make such a big difference. Thanks to Smash for our nomination, we are feeling humbled to be standing and holding hands at this time with our whole industry. Run by a dedicated committee of music lovers - including Reb Fountain, Matthew Crawley (Golden Dawn / Strange News), Lucy Macrae & Tom Anderson (Whammy Bar), Rohan Evans (The Wine Cellar) and Reuben Bonner (Banished Music) - the #SAVEOURVENUES team seek to unite in support of Aotearoa''s live music venues and music scene.

LEVEL 2 when the green light goes (fingers crossed for this week) we will let you know when we will be open, how we will be operating and what we can offer. We are optimistic and excited to see all our favourite faces but we are also braced for a slow build.

Soon beautiful Dome people, this place is all of ours X

Festivitations

It''s the festive roll out - a delirious time of casting off the haul of the year, trying to tick off some manic kind of to-do list, and have a few final flings before it''s time to settle for some family time and over indulgence.

We''ve got two super new films starting this week and a magical music party on Saturday night!

Sea Mouse from Wellington are headlining this weekend with our favourite local boy band Set Waves in support. Bring your Christmas gatherings down to celebrate being out, seeing live music and enjoying one of the best venues in New Zealand. Get your tickets from here https://www.undertheradar.co.nz/ticket/13296/Sea-Mouse.utr, or take a punt on the door for $20 cash.

Next Saturday Labretta Suede and The Motel 6 are here! Hitting NZ with a fervour to entertain with their raunchy, raucous rock''n''roll. "It's like Elvis and PJ Harvey got it on at a party thrown by The Cramps" Cheese on Toast. With international touring cancelled, we can count ourselves lucky to get the full wrath of these fun lovin'' Rock ''n Rollers. Tickets: https://www.eventbrite.co.nz/e/labretta-suede-the-motel-6-gisborne-tickets-117827504237

Then to top it all off we are finally able to welcome Landslide back to the Dome on the 18th! After two Covid postponements we are still amazed to say this show is SOLD OUT. So glad we can make all our Fleetwood Mac fans happy before Christmas.

Come and enjoy the perfect combo of our new summer menu in the beautiful garden bar. Book yourself a festive occassion - a drink, a movie, a gig, or dinner - on 027 590 2117.

Cheers!

We are still giddy with the joy of being open and seeing all of you people come through the doors to support us. Our first film screening received a standing ovation which melted our hearts, and our dining nights have been full of people, food and the sweet sound of socialising.

We are still running on limited offerings with spatious numbers but we are excited to offer two new films this week and three screening sessions.

Master Cheng opens on Thursday and is a heart warming love story filled with plenty of food and culture. A great film to bring a date to or a mate, it is equally rated by men and women so don''t hold back.

The Assistant starts on Sunday. With a stunning performance by Ozark''s Julia Garner, the story follows assistant Jane on a day in the office managing a boss who is conducting business in a special Weinstein kind of way. An important commentary in the climate of #metoo, this film receives strong reviews all round and is very timely.

Remember to book if you want to guarantee a dining table or beanbag at the movies. And come straight in to the Dome room if you''re going to the flicks. Bookings......

Service with smiles.

Oh my goodness it has been so nice to open the doors and invite many of you in for dining over this past week. The atmosphere has been fantastic as we, as much as you, have loved a little bit of normality creeping back in to our lives. The atmosphere is charged with excitement and happiness as this side of level 2 provides a sense of opening up rather than closing down.

Level 2 rules are pretty manageable for us so we are slowly opening up for a couple of movie sessions on our slower nights to begin with. There will be a few changes but maybe for the better?! Dining is now Wednesday to Saturday, with pizza and film Sundays.

Film goers will go straight into the cinema to be seated rather than go into the bar - no mingling! We will provide drinks and pizza menus and service to your seat so you don''t have to go anywhere - won''t that be nice! At intermission we will again come to you with drinks, pizza, icecream. This is some kind of delux level 2 experience so make the most of it!

Diners, you will go into the bar area to be directly seated and served from you table.

Bookings are advised for films and dining as seating is more ''exclusive'' than usual.

Level 2 we''re here for you!

Firstly we would like to say from the bottom of our hearts how grateful and utterly blown away we are at the response we''ve had from you guys to our #welovethedome campaign. We are lucky to have such an incredible community, we know it, we are all lucky to have a place like The Dome to call our own. The support you all continue to show is such a boost to our spirits, it is lightening layers of stress, and it is making everything moving forward worthwhile. Very emotional, very very emotional x.

We have stretched our funding goal. The amount we have already raised will be enormously helpful in paying the awaiting bills, but by raising our goal - to what we had hoped to achieve but never thought possible till now, we will be able to form a buffer to help us through the coming months until life can get back to normal.

Please donate if you feel it, and keep sharing the boosted page and #welovethedome. Thank you so much everybody.

https://www.boosted.org.nz/projects/we-love-the-dome

LEVEL 2 WE ARE OPEN! From Thursday we will be open for dining. This will be the usual posh affair darlings with table service by one of our lovely staff. There will be no raucous behaviour but you are welcome to look at all the other tables and soak up the feeling of being out at the Dome once more. We will be super generous with our table spacings so please book yourself in to avoid disappointment. 027 590 2117, or message on facebook, or email sally@domecinema.co.nz.

Gathering

We don''t know what the next few weeks or months are going to hold for all of us. We know we are in a vulnerable position, we know that we are going to need your support in some kind of way, we are not sure what that will look like but we sure as heck don''t like the vision of Gisborne without the Dome after Covid 19 has had its way.

FAR OUT Film Night and Blues are on hold to dilute any kind of potential for gathering. We rarely make it over 100 but we are taking this seriously.

We are open for a little slice of normality with our regular film screenings. Our beanbags have been thinned out to provide more space. Our kitchen is still serving. We have an extra high level of rotation cleaning in place and staff are being vigilent with their own health checks.

We know we are not alone in facing these challenges and we know many businesses and families will be feeling uncertain and anxious at this time. We also know that Gisborne is lucky in its isolation at times like this and that we have a fantastic sense of community.

We are gathering our thoughts and ideas on how we can offer you a slice of Dome in the near future if the curve gets steep, but right now we are here and ready to welcome you to the Dome. We will keep you posted about any changes but in the meantime want to say thankyou for your ongoing support.

Festival

We''re in the festival mood! Surf Film Fest last week - Womens Surf Film Fest next week - international film festival content coming at ya - FAR OUT 1 year festival this week - festival of rain right now!! Festival of local food every week right here from Thursday - Sunday.

So to be more specific the FAR OUT film night is turning 1 and we''re celebrating with a double feature. First up Heavy Metal Parking Lot is a festival of metal munterness as punters are interviewed in the parking lot before a Judas Priest concert - you can imagine the gems..........then Always For Pleasure dives into the festival of culture that is the New Orleans Mardi Gras, delivering the sights and sounds and nearly even the smells from 1978. You know you need to get here early for this one - 6 o''clock sharp - movie starts at 7.

Mr Jones starts this week. Having filtered out from the 2019 NZIFF, it follows the mission of a Welsh journalist in 1933 who uncovers a government imposed famine in the Soviet Union. Based on true facts, this film is a moving portrayal of a mass crime and is not for the weak of heart.

La Belle Epoque on the other hand, another NZIF Festival gem, is a heart warming French rom-com - one of Dome''s favourite genre.

Aquamarine marsupial blues infused rock band Sea Mouse are here this Friday - an energy packed performance is guaranteed from these touring mouses, so jump on board. AND Hamish Kilgour has crashed the schedule - he''s here next week for a farewell tour before he heads back to the big lights of NYC.

Come for a festival of good service and great atmosphere.

It''s on all the time x

Springing it!

We are so pleased to be bringing you our new spring menu. Just the mention of it last week brought you all in, but now it''s official - in writing. Check it out here  https://www.domecinema.co.nz/our-food/ Key Lime Pie sold out last week, I wonder why? We will make more pies, I think it is going to be popular.

The Girl on the Bridge has its first screening this Thursday to coincide with Suicide Prevention Day. The film follows a two year period of survivor Jass Thornton who emerges from her own struggles with suicide to become an advocate and support person for many others - it is a remarkable and inspiring story which takes another great step towards breaking down the stigma around mental health. We have two more screenings of this scheduled, so don''t miss out.

We have two more new films starting, Papi Chulo, the story of an unlikely friendship, and French film School Life which has been a massive box office hit at home. Check out the trailers below and get yourself down here!

The schedules have been battered a bit due to continuing Covid requirements be we are just going to box on because there are heaps of good things happening! We are forging ahead with Landslide on the 19th - this usually sells out so get yourself a ticket - if it is cancelled we will simply refund you. Our glass is half full and thats the way its staying!

Wintering over.

The fires are on (that''s the heaters that look like fires :) the blankies are fluffed and this week we are transitioning to our winter menu - yummy. For those of you dining this week we will be offering a taste of our new winter warming dishes so be prepared for a bit of a preview - you won''t be disappointed.

Now that The Assistant has finished I thought I''d chat about it as we get this scenario a bit where a film with strong reviews comes in then many of us hate it! The Assistant is one of those films. Marketed as the #metoo film of the season this film echoed the heinous culture of a Harvey Weinstein empire pre the #metoo whistleblowing. For those looking for triumph of good over evil, or even a glimpse of a #metoo moment The Assistant didn''t deliver. The style of the film reinforced the seemingly hopeless situation of young women in such an industry, drawn out to make us feel the endurance and grim reality of her situation and the impenetrable wall she faces in the way of equality and dignity.

I can understand if you hated the film. It was a difficult watch and everybodys preferences of a night at the movies are different. Maybe it should be framed as illuminating rather than the traditional idea of entertaining - it reinforced for me the importance of the #metoo movement.

We need films like this, they make us talk about culture, society, the art of film making, and they deliver different experiences, but there is certainly room for light relief and our new film Love Sarah offers up a feel good drama staged around a divine bakery - come and check it out!

It''s so great to see you all and we are so enjoying full dining rooms and cinema sessions - keep booking in, it''s working and it guarantees you a seat at the table!

Tickets please!

Many of us have turned a few notches down on the speed dial since lockdown and are navigating our way back into the event and social scene with baby steps.

We''ve eased into things slowly at the Dome and are languishing in the pleasure of having your company. Gigs have been the last thing to come back to life and we now have most of our big gigs returning with dates locked in. Tickets are selling so here are a few links you might want to look into.

DEADBEAT is the alter ego and musical concept of Shelton Woolright. A visual live experience, a collection of incredible music and samples, mixed together to create a never seen before live experience brought together by a hard-hitting live drum rhythm! Nothing like this has come to the Dome - September 25th - check out the event and ticket link: https://www.facebook.com/events/2678924439101345/

Dome favourite Reb Fountain brings her upcoming self-titled album, her debut for Flying Nun Records, to our stage on October 25th. Pulling out all the stops for this collection of noir punk-folk songs, Reb is bringing her band to deliver these news songs, and some old favourites, in full glory. Ticket link: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/banishedmusic/361092

And lastly so many of you have already got tickets for Daniel Champagne on December 5th. His evening show is sold out so we''ve put on an afternoon show on the same day. Don''t miss this virtuoso - ticket link: https://danielchampagnemusic.com/shows

In between these biggies we have plenty of party nights from the 70''s and Fiesta Latina, plus visits from The Eagles and Tina Turner!

Start planning your big night out now before you''ve forgotten how to get out of the house!

Endings, Beginnings

It''s a busy couple of weeks for films coming and going with a favourite Love Sarah coming to an end this week and Rosie finishing next week.

God of the Piano starts this Thursday to great reviews. Graeme Tuckett from Stuff gives it 4.5 stars, saying "It''s not often I find the time to watch a film a second time, but, for this one, I''ll make an exception."

The Trip to Greece is the fourth and final episode in this comedic travelogue featuring the very quick witted Rob Brydon and Steve Coogan playing hammed up versions of themselves. Sit back and enjoy the scenery and fun as the travellers tour around magnificent Greece.

Endings, Beginnings starts next week starring Shailene Woodley (Divergent) who finds herself in a love triangle between friends - things get a little messy.

These films are moving through at super speed so if there is something you want to see don''t linger - you know how to book:

Gumboots at the door!

Through the torrential rain you came! You guys are breaking all the winter hibernation habits and coming out to enjoy our new menu and films. We have our first gig in a fortnight - it''s all feeling a little bit exciting! It''s warm and cosy and welcoming in here so keep up the good work.

FAR OUT Film Night is here tomorrow night with This is Spinal Tap - a satirical 1984 "mockumentary, a Rock''n''Roll classic. Come down and be guided by our curator Mr Dylan Haley through the gems of the Far Out film world. Get here early, this is a popular night!

We have a couple of family screenings to celebrate the holidays - it''s such a thrill for the kids coming to the land of the big screen, beanbags and pizza. Red Shoes and the Seven Dwarfs is a fairy tale mash up with Princesses and Princes, witches and Cinderella shoes. This film is rated G but there are some mean witches which might be scarey to really little poppett''s. Bookings are advised to avoid disappointment 027 590 2117.

Supreme Brother Sound is our first post lockdown gig and we are thrilled it''s all local. Presales from the bar and Aviary during the day are just $10, and $15 cash on the door - check out their first release Motives https://soundcloud.com/user-962704496/motives

Troff''s new menu is going down well people - it''s easy to reserve a table, just do it.....

We''ve shut the doors on 2020 here at the Dome.

Thanks to all our wonderful supporters who''ve helped us through some tough times this year. We are very much looking forward to a fresh page in 2021 with fingers crossed for some smooth sailing and a busy tourist season. Bring your visitors in!

Big thanks to our wonderful Dome staff who put it out in style 50 weeks of the year. Thanks to the bands who have come through this year, and thanks to our distributors for keeping the films coming.

We are having a proper break so may not be getting to your emails and phone bookings in a hurry. Never fear, we will fit you all in.

Hope you have a very relaxed Christmas with people you love.

Here''s what''s coming in January....
