On your phone for more than 6 hours a day? You can get a free seat in row 4, while seats last. Your phone stays in a phone jail until the end. How it works
Our story
First known as Miorița, the cinema was almost empty when Susțin.org took it over in October 2024. A steady program, themed weekends and volunteers brought people back.
Susțin.org report, September 2026. Attendances are counted since October 2024; the same person can come to several screenings.
Form 230 · for Romanian taxpayers
If you pay income tax in Romania, it costs you nothing: the money comes from tax you already pay.

At Europa, the program doesn’t come from an algorithm. The audience and the volunteers make it.

Next evening: 3 Nov, 18:00
“Your Tuesday”: your films on the big screen.
An audience member picks the two films of the evening and tells everyone why they matter to them.

Next evening: 12 Nov, 18:00
“Volunteers’ Thursday”: a cinema for a day.
Each time, a volunteer picks two films, promotes them and brings people in, with the team’s support.
Got a film you’d love to see on the big screen? Tell us, and it might make it into the program.
Volunteers
Around 100 young people keep the cinema open, week after week. You get real experience, new friends and free films on your days off.
Second prize at the Civil Society Gala, for projects run with volunteers.

Themed weekends: 30 lei full price and 20 lei reduced, for pupils, students and pensioners. Some weekends also have a weekend pass. Special screenings and events may be priced differently: check each evening’s ticket page.
Yes, tickets are also sold at the door, while seats last. To be sure of a seat, book ahead online.
Yes, if you ask by the day before the event, at iabilet.ro/retur; on the day itself it’s no longer possible. The earlier you ask, the more you get back: the full ticket price more than 14 days ahead, 70% at 7–14 days, 50% at 1–7 days (or a larger iabilet voucher). iabilet’s fees are not refunded. Another option: sell it to someone else on dabilet.ro, iabilet’s resale platform. Log in with your iabilet account and list it for up to 20% more than you paid, or less, to sell it faster.
No. Seats aren’t reserved: first come, first served. Try the balcony too: it’s an experience you won’t find at a multiplex.
The only one we have. Cinema Europa has a single screen, so you can’t get it wrong.
Films are shown in their original language, with Romanian subtitles.
Yes. We have an accessible entrance and toilet for people with disabilities, and their entry is free.
Not necessarily. Even our own events don’t all do equally well: some concepts fill the room, others don’t, and behind every successful evening there is serious promotion work. If you’re thinking of an event here, you need two things: a free date outside our programme (which is set many weeks ahead) and a plan to bring your own audience. It may look like it runs itself, but this project lives on communication. If you have both, write to us at event@cinemaeuropa.ro.
